Most of the lines in this poem reflect the hesistation of man to commit himself. However, when it comes down to it, true commitment is the ultimate human expression.. and the last line infers that this could be the case; the poem almost seems to 'learn' as it progresses. Strange to think we just wanted to write something that would help Chi sell muffins.
Put that away - this is a bible. A truly stirring line. The many references to life and death in this poem attempt to show the reader that there is a constant struggle for balance in this world between good and evil.. good is personafied in Tim, who quit the obviously evil Storytime. The authors were angry at each other while writing this, and warred with words until the bitter conclusion where they ended up cutting each other with broken glass and doing insulting immitations of each other until they both bled to death; Ventriloquism is never the answer.
Unfortunately this poem was mainly a furthered expression of the author's rage with each other. Once again the attempts to insult each other with metaphor are obvious and many. Finally at the end the two realize that this can only result in their own destruction. Todd is cool, and the authors find common ground in this. Finally, they resolve their differences, before the world ends and demons handle wafers.
This poem is so sad.... I can barely see the screen for my tears. The authors speak of the prison of partnership at the beginning. That indeed, one may crave just to be left alone so badly that he screams like a fetish monkey for sweet abstinence. Again it is stated that Tim is good and finally at the end the authors allow a quick view into their future work - the beast is in the drivers seat... so be ready for a wild ride.
This is an elegant expression of a simple idea - Evil can never be defeated until all religions become one. JOIN JED AND PHIL'S SECOND CRUSADE TODAY!! WE ARE GOD'S SWORD!! DEATH TO THE HEATHENS!!
Sadly, as time goes by the author's seem more and more intent on thier ultra left wing religious unification message - and as it eats away at their collective mind, their poetry becomes more difficult to understand. Still, look deep and you will find truth and beauty.
Todd returns! With this grand message the author's deliver a fine poem that no longer heads down the self destructing path they had decided upon in Theology vs. Victory. No longer do they fight religion, only the Beast kills them now.
It is unfortunate that the author's cannot seem to avoid.. controversial.. views within their poetry. In A Danger Unseen they seem to have decided that the Japanese represent evil and that they hold the power of hell. Moreover, they say biggotry can deliver man to the Son of the Earth. It is believed that at this point in time Phil's manic aggression disorder began to surface, causing much of the future poetry to be tainted by his aimless hate.
Truly an angry message. The Beast once again represents evil, and it is still around, despite the author's efforts to eliminate it. Lamb chopping, fried solstice, bald death. Revere my torment. Messages from a pair tormented by one's constant anger, and the other's inability to find happiness - even with four girls at once.
The only messages that this poem seems to contain are one author's interest in becoming a violent veteranarian, and the other's bi-curiosity, stemming from his inability to be satisfied no matter how many girls he strings along.
In their final poem together, the author's various problems have left them nearly impossible to understand by your average layman. However, a poetry expert such as myself can pick up on certain subtlties which leave a distressing message to the reader - Crazy Bitch! Your mom! These are messages of purest anger, brought forth from a mind which has lost all creativity to rage.
Untie me - humming a tune. I will box the Trevor's venerable fetish. These are messages of purest lust, brought forth from a mind torn asunder by it's inability to be satisfied sexually regardless of how many hearts it has broken. In the end Todd, the Beast, even Victory itself are forgotten in this orgy of malice and perversion. Opsillincreplace is too noble a word for the twisted final effort of two monsters such as these.
