RL O-jin: A little noise addition, that if anything illustrates the potentialy deadly effects of mixing activities- like say, reading the GRIT posts and then watching the BBC adaptation of Alice Through the Looking Glass. If you hadn't guessed, the poem is based, very loosely, on The Jabberwock. Very, very loosely... (If it doesn't scan, don't blame me. I haven't written poetry since I was an angst filled teen, and I'm doiing it from my memory of how The Jaberwock runs). The GRIT combine- Twas winter, and the GRIT combine, did grin and add on to thier posts, of demons, and of Martial Art, and the Ring Wraiths' designs. Beware the GRIT combine my friend, with threads that bind and plots that trap, Beware the GRIT combine my friend, beware the running gag. One two, one two, and follow through, like flowing river metaphor. The GRIT obsession takes you in, affixed within your head. and "Hath thou -joined- the GRIT combine? Fear for your mind oh foolish boy." Calooh, calay, oh Fan-douos day, as sanity is lost. Twas winter, and the GRIT combine, did grin and add on to thier posts, of Demons, and of Martial Art, and the Ring Wraiths designs. -- O-jin------- ...and of the angel who appeared to her, and gave her an Armani jacket to cover her nakedness, and told her she was saved. otakujin@geocities.com www.geocities.com/area51/vault/6924/
