Lesson learned

[paints]

My dear boy,
It's all about the writing, is that not correct?
Well, perhaps not.

When you were asked by Achilles why you can't criticize a poem without the snide comments and ridicule you responded with " the writer whose name begins with t (aratogen?) has been sniding away for awhile."

So that is why you so viciously attacked his poems. It's not about the writing at all. Some imagined wrong done to you by Teratogen sent you off into your little paranoid vengeance mode.

Of course those of us that have been around since the beginning know this. Any perceived attacks on you or your "expertise" are met with ridicule and often personal attacks.

So can we please dispense with the "it's all about the poem" and "it's all about the writing" bull? We've learned our lesson. It's all about your massive uncontrolled ego. Nothing more.

Now, where is the Young Dr. Freud when we need him most?

P.S.

It is with bitter regret that I return and find C2 unimproved in my absence. But as bile rises and venom drips and vodka seeks its own level --- so C2 will always be C2. The Robespierre of our unhappy poetry board instituting his little reign of terror---offing the little versifying heads of our unworthy poets. Unless, you're a friend. Oh, the World! The World!

yeah, but you remember what happened to little maximilian robespierre, right? lemme tell ya, it wasn't pretty.
