You know, I agree with this one...

Ottava rima? Me? That can't be right!
   Too frivolous? But tut, there's no such thing!
Let others ponder thoughts of wrong and right,
   Or sit and think how much they love the spring;
I'd rather spend my time in gleeful spite,
   Or maybe laugh, or maybe sit and sing.
Besides, it might be fun to be inspiring -
But surely it would get so very tiring.

I'm terza rima, and I talk and smile.
Where others lock their rhymes and thoughts away
I let mine out, and chatter all the while.

I'm rarely on my own - a wasted day
Is any day that's spent without a friend,
With nothing much to do or hear or say.

I like to be with people, and depend
On company for being entertained;
Which seems a good solution, in the end. What Poetry Form Are You?

[tm_darla]

I think that suits you very well. And note we're both forms Byron was very fond of....

[kara_marie]

Who's Byron?

Because, you know, if he comes randomly to stay without proper security clearance first and all paperwork submitted by the due date... then I'm going to make pointed and snide remarks about him just because he SOUNDS male. When maybe he wasn't even!

[tm_darla]

Byron's safely dead poet from the early 1800s. Well, at least I think he's dead; these days you never know who could turn up again resurrected, but as I never met him, he's not likely to turn up at our doorstep.

Does that mean female visitors aren't worthy of snide remarks?

[soulful_spike]

Don't think it means anything. But I got the same result as you. Course I didn't check the boxes about tossin' stuff off buildings. Might've back in my evil soulless vampire days. Now with the guilty conscience, I've had to find other less fun pastime activities.

Anyway, since its been way too long since I said hey to my dearest and most favorite ex-vampire family member. Just thought I'd send this little poem I made just for you.

Oh so lovely
Sweet and motherly

You are beautiful
And very dutiful

Talk the talk
Walk the walk

A bit perplexy
But really sexy

More than fine
You are divine

A dear friend
Til the end

You are... really unique, William. How's life treating you these days?

[soulful_spike]

Coming from you Darla, I'll take being called unique as a compliment.

In terms of how bloody life is treating me lately. My unlife pretty much sucks as always. I'm still pining over Buffy. Who still doesn't love me like I love her. And everything I say or do is taken the wrong way. Worst of all Passions and several other shows I liked got canceled. I hate the damn networks when they cancel shows I've become emotionally attached too.

Yet I'm still immortal, and dead sexy. So things could always be worse.

Anyhow, enough about me. How are you doing? I do hope your doing better. Or least not any worse.

People keep trying to kill her. And she's bonded to Lindsey - which makes me wonder if she feels like she's having dirty nasty sex with Cordelia most of the time? Who knows, right? So I think she wins in the life sucks stakes, SPIKE!!!
