	n u t t y . Nathan Spotswood	I wouldn't consider a train running someone over a train wreck, I would have made more emphasis on your pain being as intense as a train's as it collides with fate. I guess I just prefer to see the titles of poems have some form of relevance over the poem that follows.   Posted by n u t t y . on May 3, 2007 - Thursday - 11:58 AM [Reply to this]

	Jon Sanders	I guess I just felt like a train when I was writing it :)   Posted by Jon Sanders on May 3, 2007 - Thursday - 3:44 PM [Reply to this]

	BC Beneke	Train metephors and an amazing picture... I'm never good at putting both sides of my art together like that. I am going between your book, and 4 books on Leukemia, and my text books. I should have yours done in the next couple of days, and I'll have your request done by Sunday if all goes well. Great work as always Jon. I just found out I'm going to be published in Joanne Olivari's YaSoul ezine in July... so I'm kind of excited... it will be the second one published, unless you count the songs... Best wishes to you.

	Gothik Angel Kristy Kollar	All the love I've borrowed--- I never gave it back So see me as a criminal- so deserving of the pain Imprisoned by my sorrow, I'm shackled to a track staring down the line in the shadow of a train But I've never really struggled because I've never felt anything on my skin but all the bitter pain And I just want to feel you even if it means I'll never feel anything again In these lines, it is so true, if we could just experience that one love just to have it, we would not want to experience anything else for the rest of our lives because our lives would be complete. Jon, keep up your writing up, because it is very emotional, true, and very inspiring!   Posted by Gothik Angel on May 3, 2007 - Thursday - 3:08 PM [Reply to this]
