A title just completely eludes me. I thought you guys might be able to help.
Just one restriction: I don't want the words "ivory throat" in the title.
Any help will be appreciated!
I know of another woman
With an ivory throat
Who washes clothes by hand
With Lava soap
And wakes each day
With flowers in her hair;
She doesn't like bees
(although she's never been stung)
This woman with the ivory throat.
When she plants a garden
(which she does, she does)
Her plants grow plump
And juicy inside
And you can hear them sigh
As she walks by,
Her gardening-skirt
Rippling with her thighs.

i like the sound of it....is it from something?
I think you are right. She would drink that. It is certainly a usable title.
But it's not personal at all. The woman in this poem is entirely fictional.
ahhh...makes much more sense now...thanks for the suggestion!
I actually kinda like this one....it's bizarre but serious....
It's an interesting idea...maybe sounds a bit too negative, though? I'm not sure...interesting....
I suppose it is somewhat negative....I thought I detected an undercurrent of negativity beneath the seemingly positive poem...?
I would say that you're right about that, but I wouldn't want to give too much away with the title, eh?
Fold or Folds (now I need to fill up space for 50 characters.)

Are you suggesting the title of "Fold or Folds" or "Fold" or "Folds"?

You know me so well! I actually AM drinking Dr. Pepper...and when I go out to smoke I sit in a beach chair.
And man do I ever love hot dogs!

I've always loved being in basements, for whatever reason...there is something distinctly unusual about being underground....plus, I've always loved the smell, since I was a kid....that musty smell...if they could make that in a cologne I'd wear it....

you do italics like this, except without the spaces:
[ i ] unusual [/i]
same with bold:
[ b ] bold [ /b ]
just no spaces
