Anunitu
I think Geoffrey made it clear that he is going to an exhibition at a hotel now so he may not be free to do that for you today. Maybe he will put up the site tomorrow.
I do hope you will be patient with him. One thing I should tell you about Geoffrey is that English is not his second language. I hope that will make you think more before you tease him.
love to Anunitu
Sue
yeah, well, errrrm, hum, yeah, ok, I dunno, articulation is not my fing, who cares, SHUT IT YOU MUPPET, blah blah blah

another snide remark? what is it with you, juanita?
I date it back to when you failed to realise that some of the poems Anita has posted come from real life and thus the rules of good writing are immediately suspended in favour of the rules of self-indulgent crappola.

well, he appears to talk in riddles and i can't always grasp what he means. i feel sorry for him - in a way - but i'm sure he's not as bad as he may seem to others. perhaps he doesn't get out a lot, i don't know. he certainly harbours a small amount of passive aggression. he accused me(?) of having a small mind and i haven't even done or said anything against him. i asked him what 'snide' remarks were made and he couldn't find any. i suspect there is a psychosis, a pathological cause, because he has just singled me out for some reason.

I am but a simple ironer, no philosopher. but may I suggest that Antony feels threatened by you. you are a most brilliant writer- indeed if you were a competitive ironer I can imagine you making a regional 2nd division reserve list! I am not sure that compliments come fatter than that!anyway, Antony thinks poeting is a competitive sport but we know it isn't. ones best work just flows from the heart and soul and pours unchecked onto the paper. (NB IRONy alert)

speak for yourself (ha ha ha - just joking!!!)
i have enjoyed this sunday, lizzy. seem to have been sitting with this computer all day, even though i did manage a trip to an exhibition for a couple of hours near lunch-time, and during the afternoon a stroll to the local petrol station to buy bread and milk. but i just seem to have spent an exceptionally long time in the 'leonard cohen files forum' today - even though my time here was broken up into several parts. i have also tidied up the house, read skynews and cnn - as well as been on a lot of scandinavian sites. it's been real nice and undemanding interacting with some of leonard's fans, especially with you and sideways. maybe we should do this more often - next weekend perhaps? we can joke, be a bit serious, touch a nerve or two, and tease - even be snide. anyway, it was great, but now i have to retire for the evening. i've lost count of how many messages i've posted today, but it must be a record for me. normally i only stay long enough for one or at the most two posts. be seeing you, i hope.
P.S. I'm surprized you could slide right by snide and not recognize it... in this very thread, on this very page.
It's good to know this held your attention. I don't have time to come here much anymore myself. In any case, it's good to see you. Sleep well, Geoffrey.

I find you interesting Geoffrey , because I do see something deeper than just your persona here.
I wonder about your culture, the things that shaped your growing years. I would imagine you grew up in a Christian environment
with all that goes along with the social and Religious edicts.
Since I myself am not Christian, and honor the Old Gods, I find it interesting to study the perceptions of non Pagans, concerning
our beliefs.
To understand a bit about my beliefs, you might go to the link below, though this is mostly from the perspective of John Dee, the use of the Enochian texts goes back much further.
yes, this is interesting Anunitu but not as interesting as you and Lizzy being too scared to comment that Geoffrey Wren is Ren. Maybe people when they are trolled don't have the brave to face it and easier to empty a bleeding heart for the pretend poster! Geoffrey is all round wonderful with his tease and the way he makes fools of simple people and I would iron his boxer shorts for free (if Michael let me!).
love
Sue

Ahhh, fools, the last message was for Geoffrey, no other, as to your comment about being scared, I was being kind. If indeed you wish to cross swords, then begin, and I will forgo kindness.
All I really see, is a lap dog following after barking for attention. I respect this forum for what it is, a place to discuss the works of a great poet, and a man of some substance. I respect jarkko for providing this little corner of the Web, to allow fans of this great man to interact and perhaps get acquainted. There is no place here for flaming or derision, it distracts from a civil interaction between the people who come here to post their thoughts, and perhaps their dreams.
