Ghosts in the machine.

Skynet's writing poetry in my spam filter again:

We always have been and always will be.

However, upon my arrival I was angler fish

For sale greeted by a busy car park

And returned a last couple after

Reverting to the dry fly once more.

What wine best goes with dry fly?; 4:57 PM, March 19, 2014
Micki Mahoney said...: Well, I think it's jolly unkind of you all to mock Kristen Stewart's poetry like that. Sure, it doesn't have the faux-naif verve of "My Heart Is A Wiffleball/Freedom Pole" but I see strong echoes of Ginsberg's "Howl" in there. You should all be more supportive of her emerging talent. Even if it means she quits acting.; 7:41 PM, March 19, 2014
