as you may recall from Stories of the Street, Leonard wrote


The troll called Paints is giving birth, and both his parents ask
Why he tells such fairy tales from both sides of his ass
He has baby trolls called Perth and Mirth
And still the people pass
Every thread he starts on here
They hope that it’s his last

And now the troll with his cause is hauled in like a kite,
With one eye filled with bullshit, one eye filled with spite.

I try to stay out of these type of affairs, but I just had to laugh with this one.

Hi Lizzy, thanks and welcome back to a sensible sane person.

Thanks for the 'prop' ~ that's slang for compliment. My sensibilities and sanity are gradually returning. They took a hike through briars and brambles for awhile....and I felt desperate for the balm of human and wild-animal contact.

It's really quite absurd, all these detractions. At least, they resulted in a fun parody. Overall, quite tedious, however. I know I'm preaching to the choir on that.

Oh dear,
That PLONKED button really is broke! We must get that fixed ASAP!

You sweet child, it's so nice of you to include me in the games you play but, really, I don't indulge in such nonsense. I'm only here to help you. Now you keep wanting to associate me with other names (oddly enough, some of the ones you yourself have created), and that's fine, if it makes you feel better go right ahead, but it will not deter me from what I'm here to do. However, this paranoia of yours is showing itself in a truly sad way. Bad form ol' boy, bad form.

What we really need from you is not another clever poem, nor another rant against imagined foes, but something with some bite to it. Would it help if we put a deadline on this? Maybe it will help you focus more and you will not be so easily distracted by those voices you hear.

no paints here, sorry to disappoint.
