Have you ever heard of Norman MacCaig?
Seriously?

By asking ''Can I ask you a question'' you didnt actualy leave us much choice.

These scenarios can be solved by a swift blow to the face technically it's still an answer, but a damn clever one

sorry but i just had to go for the cheese/ pie/ sex option

You mean this guy tho :P

i hear ya on that one filth

Omg. . . you got a picture ??
Apparantly hes famous (accordin to my english teacher). . .

it was just destracting, it had the word cheese in it how are we ment to resist im sorry but when cheese is involved i just cant have a propper opinion

yer i just typed his name in google

Fair enough
We have to write an essay on this anti - christian poem he wrote called Assisi. . .

sounds boring

Yup. . .

A dwarf with his hands on backwards
sat slumped like a half filled sack
on tiny twisted legs from which
sawdust might run,
Outside the three tiers of churches built,
in honour of St Francis, brother of the poor,
talker with birds, over whom he had the advantage
of not bein dead yet.

a priest explained how clever it was
of Giotto to make his frescoes
tell stories that would reveal to
the illeterate, the goodness of God and
the suffering of his son.
I understood the explanation,
and the cleverness.

A group of tourists clucking contentedly
followed him as he scattered the grain of the Word.
It was they who had past the ruined temple outside,
whose eyes wept pus, whose bak
was higher than his head, whose lopsided mouth
said Grazie in a voice
as sweet as a childs when she spoke to her mother,
or a birds, whenit spoke
to St Francis.

i did not even understand half of it, tho i did slack off in english kinda regreting it now

Well i have to write an 800 word essay on its relevance to the Hypocrisy of the Catholic church . . . *help*

i wish i could, but i dont understand the poem

Heh heh, your not alone
If anyone has a clue what its about, please, for the love of god, TELL ME!

nah

Never heard of him.

"can i ask you a question?"

didnt give me much of a choice, did ya, buddy?

Take a look at the second post down

in one look, i saw dave's entire avatar....my head hurts...

You are my God.

The cheese/ pie/ sex option.
if you want an answer never put this option in...
btw i went for this option

No ever,Is he an actor or a singer?JM

didnt see that. sorry.

wtf?

And you're the first to beat me up if I take what you say literally.

i know its so destracting

Hes a poet. . .

Emma, how the hell many questionarre threads have you tacked up?

A fair few

What's the cheese/sex/pie option anyways...

Well, like in every poll theres always an option like 'I like cheese' or 'mmm pie!' or 'Im in *insert name* s pants', so i just kinda took the initiative and made them into one option, so fans of only cheese, or only pie, or just sex wont be left without an option. . .



Wow. . . i suck!
