great writing as usual. Beautifly Bizzare, just how I like it. the last one was my favorite.
|
Fan-damn-tastic work as ever, Max. Have you ever considered publishing a book of your work(I mean ALL your work; articles, poetry, artworks, etc.)?
Cubicle Ape & Alplachian Haiku were my favourites. BTW, in Witch City, is Iron Dave the Rat Bastard the same Dave you mentioned numerous times in The I Don't Like It List? |
I've often had the same thought about Elmo, but never thought to write poetry about it. I usually just stomp on my son's toys for a while until I feel better.
I very much enjoyed Witch City, and I wondered the same thing as Autrach Sejanoz about Iron Dave. |
Max, you are my hero in ways you couldn't possibly comprehend. You are quite possibly my all time favorite writer of any kind.
|
Love it. Know one thing. Grish wants a cd of your poetry. Read by William Shatner and Christopher Walken and Ultimate Warrior!
|
Max, you rat bastard!
The only thing missing from this work of epic proportions is a soundtrack, preferably bongos and finger cymbals. You use "words" to construct "sentences" that have not even been imagined by the craziest of manifesto writers - I wonder if there's a padded cell with your name on it somewhere. Your "Appalachian Haiku" is not strictly a haiku (but it's still damned funny). And I'm sure you knew this already. Anxiously awaiting "Part 9". |
loved Alplachian Haiku. my fav. last one was pretty good too
|
I cannot think of a more horrifying thought than to imagine what your nightmares might look like burbank.
|
By jove, i cant believe i still read these things -_-
|
I agree, Elmo DID ruin Sesame Street
|
It is reassuring to see that there is someone out there who is worse at poetry than I am. I mean, I've failed every poetry course I ever took in school or otherwise, but you suck. What I mean to say is, Thank You for sucking so hard. I may be laughing at you and not with you, but at least you made me laugh.

The best poetry comes from the most troubled minds, I love it Max

actually beatpole I passed all of my poetry classes(high school and college levels) and Max is a damn fine poet in the david sedaris vein. Witch City is fantastic. my personal favorite.
|
i'd say beatpole IS another whipping boy

I've always hated Elmo. It's my opinion that he's responsible for Grovers crack addiction. How else is he to cope with the pain of knowing he's been replaced by that high-voiced annoying jackass? There is no other way, that's how. It's been proven scientifically. By scientists.
|
Pontificating,
Overbearing, Self-serving, Pretentious beatpole. |

Yeah beatpole, fuck off. I was always under the impression that poetry didn't have to have any kind of form or reason. It's called freeform I believe, I didn't pay that much attention in english class.
|
You guys are all suck ups.
|
This Beatpole fellow defies the ways of my Burbankist faith. He shall be eliminated in the quickest manner feasibly executable.

I just woke up from a dream in which I was watching the spanish channel (Which I navigated with a map from Metroid) and the show I was watching mostly consisted of you walking out onto a lawn in pajamas and a bathrobe, yelling "I'm Max Burbank" at the top of your lungs, and me saying to the person watching TV with me "That lawn is in salem."
|
Oooo someone has a crush.
suck ups |
I really wasn't joking, I just went to the latest Burbank article to post it.
Although I do have quite a crush on Max ;) |
Max, I just wish I had a cappuccino to drink while enjoying this fine poetry.
Stay cool, Daddy-O! 8) |
Thanks all, and who doesn't have a crush on me? I mean seriously. I am delectable.
Iron Dave and the other Dave are not only not the same Dave, they aren't based on actual people. They are more personifications of ideas. To me 'Dave' is a great every man name. Years ago I spent some time knocking around Indian reservations out in the four states area, and it seemed like every guide I met was named Dave. There's a great Kids in the Hall song, "These are the Daves I know." Joe, Johnny and Dave are my favorite anybody names. To paraphrase a certain animated skunk, Beatpole can call me Flower if he wants to. My love embraces all. And as far as sucking up goes, what would be the point? That being said, anyone who wants to send me money is allowed to. |
You even suck up too yourself.
|
Too true, but then I'm always well positioned to reward myself for my own slavish loyalty.
|
<3 you Max
|
Thanks for the explanations, Max.
Though I can't offer you money, will my soul do? |
Nice again, Max ^^
Introspection and Cubicle Ape were my favorites |
I'm sure if I understood the things it'd be awesome man.
|
I'd criticize your work, Max, if I could find one abstract form of verbiage that was excessive in redundancy or loose in verisimilitude, but in fact all your free-associating obfuscations serve only to add to the greater delectability of the iambic pentameter.
Forsooth. |
