*something implicit. Fuck it, time for some sleep before I become completely senile.

That was not the point. The point was that explicitly explaining something explicit kills the magic, at least if the story isn't more interesting than the poem. Or something.

But it does. Maybe not for you, but that's completely irrelevant.

The best way to ruin a poem is to explicitly explain it. Good job, you ruined it.

Much better. One can almost come to the conclusion that you are older than 16 when reading that. Your rhythm is good, but slightly off. I would recommend actually reading some classical poetry (cf. Shakespeare, Eliot etc) and it will probably grow on you.

After reading up on some of those letters, I am not sure if I will be able to read Joyce with a straight face again.

Well that's the thing with fantasy.... It's either at least slightly popular or it's shit. I have concluded this empirically by randomly selecting and reading fantasy novels that were not notorious in the slightest. Obviously popularity does not mean that it's good, that I have also concluded to be false in many cases.

I'm fairly sure that is not the way it's done.

Does /lit/ hate Shakespeare? This is new to me. I thought we agreed on the fact that he is probably the most ingenous English writer along with Joyce a long time ago.

What this fine gentleman said. I like Lynch's writing better, but both are fairly short-legged on the good writing department. It will also get you more hipster points 'cuz it ain't mainstream yet.

Evince. Only user proprietary readers if you enjoy getting infected by embedded executables ( http://www.metasploit.com/modules/exploit/windows/fileformat/adobe_pdf_embedded_exe ). Not sure if this holds for Foxit, but it's extremely bloated so there is no point either way.

I know that it's bad parody, but man, you just have shit taste in games if those are your top masterpieces.
