Wondering Where Some Went

What ever happened to the writer's whos work I used to read a few months back? Trin,Twin's, finsbury, justam, pacifier, IMS, pastanazi, and some others who's names I don't recall (Its been awhile). Depop, Ali, and some others I still see writing, but I'm just wondering what happened to the rest. I haven't been on much in the past few months so I couldn't keep track.
I shouldn't have to fight a battle I'll never win, just to lose those I've never had.

Oh it you, I thought I heard snoring.
You’re on the outside, never bound by such a spell.
Together in the darkness, alone in the light.
I took it upon me to be yours, Timmy,
I’ll lead your angels and demons at play tonight......»
No one needs a smile more than someone who fails to give one,
After you die...you know how to LIVE!

what a nice shout-out?
i be "here" and stuff... sometimes...
i'm not writing much new stuff right now. working on editing the old so I can pimp it and make some money... lol...
i'm doing a poetry reading with music and stuff at the local high school. i sent them some of my stuff, and i'm holding my breath for the verdict... hope they don't think i'm too brash or too focused on my primary theme (love and heartache)
it's nerve-wracking, i swear... but in the best of ways
ciao ciao

it's just the not the same.
it internet castigation escalating into that . . . it's the equivalent of bannishing someone from the kingdom. (i mean, here, we are words, and we of all people understand that analogy)
it made me sick. i still love everyone's poetry. i think it's great, but i don't feel inspired here very often anymore, it's no one's fault; it's just . . . i don't know. carry on.
(i really thought your "the theme was . . ." was brilliant though.)
she actually started out defending poets, of all people . . .
i saw a couple of posts at the time and then she was gone.
i wrote to the admin here and told them that i thought it was a terrible way to *moderate* humans, especially writers, that i saw it as a form of censorship and that i did not approve.
they pretty much said, so what?
lmao!!!
that is SO not true :D:D:D
isn, baby... if you read this ~ yer crazy girl, but i dig you anyway. hope you're givin' 'em hell out there
and.... HOWDEDOO of_the_girl!!!
HOLLA!! :D
Still here occasionally. I might have been away a bit more than usual because I went and got myself pregnant (well, someone else got me pregnant, but I was involved in the situation) anyway, it turns out it's really exhausting to be pregnant, plus I'm trying to study on top of that, so all of a sudden I have no energy and no great urge to write. but i wrote something today. I'll probably be off and on occassionally. I think the main reason I'm on today is because I have an assignment due so I tend to busy myself with anything but the assignment until the very last minute. silly girl, I know, but I've done it all my life and I get by alright.
I can't believe my absence was actually notice. cool. and by kovo, too I really enjoy reading your stuff, so that is cool.
really, i thought she mentioned an irish poet or two when speaking of people who were considered to be insane and unfit to care for children along those lines . . . So?
i thought it involved comments about mental stability and children and isn compared herself to several poets defending them and herself, and that was the thread . . .
anyway, for clarity's sake this is honestly where i thought the shit began to hit the fan:

guess what?
I don't have to be a victim of prejudice
I don't have to be a loser in some kind of health stakes
when it appears that I have more intelligence
than two ignorant bigots combined
and that I have more imagination than
a couple of poor fame-desiring ignorant hicks
and a lot more savvy than a bevy of so-called
sane Molly Malones
who want to preserve the old Ireland of
comfortable insularity
I have invested in my country's future
in Flann O' Brien, Yeats, Wilde and all those
odd personalities......
if I am more like them than I am like you......
I'd like you to study Beckett and Joyce
and question, really question
who is more sane
you or I?
(and I am happy to provide you with answer no. 22
yes, Catherine Jones of Killiney Hill, Mount Merrion,
and Foxrock - has a deeper understanding of mental problems
than some quick non-entity like yourself......she has
a real claim
to the mad Irish brain).
by isn
(who is herself a poet, and i think she was defending herself . . . so )
well, anyhow, she got banned and she did defend poets/writers and parents who people try to separate from their children, then she herself was separated from this website . . . well, i guess i don't know really know why, and i'll never really understand, so . . . okay.
Yeats wasn't insane. Pretentious, whimsical, insecure, oversexed, politically unpredictable, maybe. But you don't get awarded a place on the Irish Senate if your views aren't taken seriously.
Wilde was eccentric, I'll grant you. He was an odd one.
Anyway, back to the thread.
I was talking 'bout what she "STARTED" doing when she STARTED posting on this board... which was more o' pissin' poets (PJPoets) off than anything else, lol Irish ones... American ones... all sorts of us
man, that woman was uber-skilled at that.
I do enjoy her writing when it's serious, and her antics when she's not... I miss her too, so
sorry i misunderstood

little skittish
gotta smoke?
yes, i know about that too.
i read a lot of stuff before i started posting here . . . there were two reasons, isn and groove.
adios, it's off to honduras
I second that! Some real awesome talent from those folks! And very much missed are they I'd have to say. :( But, life goes on, people move "onward and upward to excellence" (I hope!!!).
ps. I miss ISN too. Sure she pissed people off and I can't say I'd agree with her political views but to each their own. She was never nasty to me and I always enjoyed her poetry posts.
HONDURAS???
lucky!!!!
I love to post on here though, and I feel confident with sharing work even if it doesn't always come across as very good or as accessible.
I haven't been on here much recently. Been super busy at home. Mending relationships and trying to work out differences in others. My children will be starting school soon so I've been job hunting as well-going more the direction of what I'd really like to do. I still stop in from time to time and read though. I haven't written a whole lot recently so nothing much to post.
