I'm quite sure that if I visited a blog with a poem on the front page like the one I posted a couple of days ago, I'd think that the blogger was a pretentious twat.

I thought that I had said "The Cavism Blossoms" after one of the three poems I wrote one night. It turns out that I just thought that in my head when I wrote them. But anyway, for the one I just posted, I feel like saying "The Curtis-ism Blossoms", but I wonder if anyone would understand what I meant. I don't know what makes me think in such a strange way, after all it has nothing whatsoever to do with Mr. Curtis, nor am I in the least bit familiar with his work. I pick up a lot on seemingly off-hand remarks that people make, and because of my bizarre memory I tend to form some kind of fractured image of people based on these scraps of information. Which, I fear, is what has happened with Mr. Curtis here.

You seriously think your blog is pretentious after reading me? o_O For God's sake, I have a poem called C'est La Vie on the front page!! Doesn't get much more pretentious than that, I'm afraid.

"the author there is so pretentious she makes me laugh."

Really? That's funny, she makes me cry, because she hates me.

"anyway, it's your blog, dear friend, and it's a very cool one"

I know it is mine, and I suppose that does give me the freedom to be a pretentious twat if I wanted to be one, but I don't darn it!

yes, I seriously think so ^^. how is posting a poem you wrote on your blog pretentious?

O.O if she hates you, then she's not a monkey's uncle. it was proven in year 9 that she IS indeed a monkey's uncle. therefore she doesn't hate you. indeed she quite adores you *adores*

indeed it does, and indeed you don't. and indeed you aren't. though indeed you think are aren'tn't.

*pause* I am convoluted; I think I need to go for a bit of a nap..
