sad
Mood: very sadI realise that this was once just an assignment ( and a very successful one at that ) for a young student setting out on his career in the field of programming et al,
and I also appreciate that life has to move on. ... but I am still saddend that young poets ( and a few old ones) will never again experience the vibrancy and exchange of great talent that was once here.

| So if/when you log back in, since I'm here. I feel, and I know this is silly and dramatic, almost a sense of real sadness seeing all these forums and things gone. It's not that I've been making use of them, I mean everyones been drifting away, but just remembering this place and others as something you could engage with all night, like a Wild Neverending West of madness. And thinking now of the cold, robotic wall of having the whole world consolidated into three sites, is like looking at something die. You understand it's not ES alone, but just memories, and interactions, internet ghost towns are nearly as bad as real ghost towns. Because the people in the internet shost towns, or who were once in them seemed realer than the millions and millions of people on a neverending scroll of like/dislike. Damn. I guess the old times did matter to me, or I was more fonder towards life back then, or something...
Don't just say you like the poem. What did you like about it? Is it bad because it's emo? Oh my. It was a funny time. On these little islands no-one else in daily life knows about. Hmm. We where here together, all the ES people, but no-one saw us. And we said hundreds of thousands of words. Of course I feel sad. When I'm here I'm thinking of coming back from school. Or staying up late in my Grandparents house. And writing bad poetry and being very entertained by it and thinking it was the best thing ever. Old buses. Coming home from somewhere. Just hanging, in a place that wasnt built on gunk and parroting. I was actually here, not just my avatar. Fuck it anyway... All the best Craig |

| Y'know, that's like the nicest thing I've heard in a long while. That you would check that out and enjoy it, really made my day actually. It's not just that a matter of complements, but someone taking an interest can almost remind you of a part of yourself.
I take a while to come back here, but I suppose I will continue to if the previous decade or so is any barometer. And so yeah, I am with you shadows coalescing in the decaying structure of the site! Hopefully Daniels doing well also. Hope you have a good day:) |

| you must not even consider walking back into a petrie dish of deserving child-folk, just because Drake's drum has been beaten by a morally bankrupt, average-at-best administration in office (NOT power).
hunker down, draw them close (once lat-flo'd) and do what you can from a distance. a lot of our angst, disassociation and anger is as a direct result of the sociopathic and cruel behaviours and politics of those currently in office. they appal me. you on the other hand, shine a bright light right into the cornea/pupil/important bit of their dead, unfeeling eyes. pay yourself first Pilgrim xx |

| yes it is in 'the-detail':
it is the-angle-of-the-dangle best scene in the right half light (marlowe my choice vice the 'speare) and that spangled, unexpected, hungry-finger-tightened shean (quite rightly, rarely scene) archived, whilst spawn-rich wetlands are unearthed and made habitat the caveat of course is that: familial hilarial is right up there too, with small comedy feet treading in new shoes in the north (and) in the south (west) so, how best to invest in this lineage? give your time. just saying 😊 you alright? Kx PS Alexander is the root cause of this chaos, malaise and loss of appetite to question. He is dangerous in every way. |
