My name is Muffie. I'm a Poetry Lurker.

[KillerMuffin]

It's cool, actually. I like to tread the "new poems" thread because I like to see what people think of the poems that are put up. I like to read the feedback people give to other poets as well. I think that's really cool.

Does anyone else lurk here?

 

[WickedEve]

I'm Wicked and if I'm not posting I'm lurking. As I soon as I click submit, back into the shadows I go to read everything you people post! Everything...

Hey! If anyone is out there in lurkland, just come on in and kick off your shoes and say "hi." That's it. Just type out "hi" and click submit. I'll say "hi" back at you. Then you'll be required to post 3 sonnets and a haiku, and critique one of Senna's poems.

Now for the real lurking, I'm on my way to the BDSM board.

not me

 

[Lauren Hynde]

Like Eve, I may not post anything for a few days, but I'm lurking all the time. I read everything posted in this board since April.

 

[WickedEve]

Well, for the "lurkers" out there do you think we may not be warm and friendly enough? Is lauren scaring you off and keeping you from posting? If so, let me know. I'll spank her. She'll like it, though so maybe not... Is it Angeline? I'll spank her too. It's time to break old woody the paddle in.

Lauren, don't look now but cheeks are clenching at a furious pace just above your post. It's rather hypnotic.

 

[Mythos50]

Hi, my name is Mythos and if I said I lurked the boards who wood believe it?

Actually, I'm telling a big tail here ...that's tale ...Eros, I need a bigger coat!

Poetry Lurkers

I think that we are all lurkers.
In our own, little private, psychotic ways.
And its a good thing!

 

[Angeline]

This thread...

has the ring of an AA meeting. lol.

[stands humbly before you all]

Hi. My name is Angeline and I'm a lurker. (Except I'm not. I'm more of a babbler--prolly I *should* lurk more )

 

[OT]

if you should peek at the posts per day.... I'm the only bona fide lurker in the crowd (so far)

The official Lurker's thread stays mysteriously empty ... go figure.

 

[silken_dreammaid]

My name's silken and I come from a long line of lurkers. It is much more comfortable in the shadows.

I would like to nominate OT as CEO of the Lit Lurkers Anonymous & Miscellaneous Association (LLAMA).

 

[karmadog]

I lurk because Lauren and Angeline frighten me.

Eve, can I watch while you spank them?

 

[Lauren Hynde]

 

[Rybka]

Lunker Licker

I am only a little fish, not a lunker!
Maybe when I get a lot bigger!
I am not a licker either. Right now I only nibble at things like poetry and dangly toes.

Regards,                       Rybka

 

[darkmaas]

lateo ergo sum

I'm with Kdog. Except I may have to close my eyes.

 

[Angeline]

Funkadelic

You're looking for Eve to protect YOU while she spanks us? Hahahahahaha.

And darkmaas? I think you're just squinting. And by god is that a grin? lol

 

[darkmaas]

Is that a grin?

Lurkers never grin. I just got something in my eye.

Too Busy A Jerker

I’m not a lurker
I’m a poetry jerker:
That’s right,
I said what I said,
I don’t write poetry
I jerk it instead.

Straight from my brain
Come words so insane
Makes Saddam’s reign
Look plain,
Old plain
In a drab brown
Sandy colored
Scrapper wrapper.

Yeah, I’m not a lurker
Not out your post door
Thread barren
Despairin’
Working for more;
No, those footprints you see
Are not about me
I’m too busy jerking
Poetry.


* * * * * * *

lol!

 

[alwaysawake]

I read everything on the Poetry threads, too, but am a skulker and not a lurker! AA

 

[Kate.E]

Now that I have made it to the correct thread, I'd just like to add that I'm still available as a guest reviewer (Writer's Guild rates apply). I have a good range of styles and can offer constructive criticism and individual praise as well as 'other stuff'.

 

[Lauren Hynde]

I can vouch for the outstanding quality of her 'other stuff'.

«Your similes suck … like a leech, if that’s what they are, the whole thing was as painful as scraping sandpaper across my eyeballs, which incidentally, is what I’d rather do than read any more 'poetry' by you.»

«I think you should sort yourself’s (sic) out, she should get a haircut and you should go back to flipping burgers. Large fries with that, please.»

 

[The_Fool]

If a lurker is kinda like a voyeur, I'm there.....
