Don't worry, I'm not jumping ship--I enjoy your work too much! I don't often initiate fanning, because I can barely keep up with the reviews and do feel obligated if someone reviews my work to try to review theirs, even though I might have to pick and choose to find one I want to read and review. I liked your playful title and artwork selection, along with your signature sarcasm! It always amazes me that you can do these diatribes in meter and rhyme. Cheers- Joan

    LOL thanks Joan. This was just to let off some steam as I think its a hide to expect others to automatically fan you if you follow them. Glad I can still amaze you with my diatribe...ooh that is such a good word mate...might have to borrow that sometime.
    I've thrashed "vernacular". LMAO
    Thanks and take care

Well let me just start by saying that I am honored that You are my fan. I totally agree that Fanstory seems to be a tool to feed some peoples egos. Thank God that we are both so HUMBLE! :) Anyway I love following Your posts, even though I don't always get a chance to review them. Nice writing on what is probably a sore subject for some, always a pleasure to read your work. Hope all is well!
God Bless
Doug

Who has the TIME to be fans with every Tom, Dick and Harry, quality is the name of the game for me, produce quality writing and Little old Hitch might well become a fan, if you need to ask me... You've already lost. It would be like someone that you are not attracted to saying they think you are sexy so lets go f*ck, it ain't goanna happen now is it :)

Closet, now you are on a ship - what happened to Everest, or did we survive that and feel like a swim?

Ok this is one that has me wee brain moving in different directions - that can be a dangerous thing.

For me it boils down to my own integrity as a writer, reviewer and overall in my life. Partly cause all the other crap tires me out and means diddly squat.

You go girl, this is refreshing change. Not sure what is all going on the front page or throughout the site - sure feels like a Tsunami though, not at all pleasant.

Thanks for sharing - pass the chocolate - you can't hide it from me I smell it!!

    LOL No ship...just pissed off when people ASK for my reviewing excellence. Someone actually acknowledged it was like being bought or sold but still asked...I mean FFS.
    Anyhow, noone buys the Closet...I give off myself freely if I like what I see...the rest I either don't like, or don't get time to get near.
    Cheers and gimme back that f**king chocolate...I thought I had it hidden well behind the 2'high mm dispenser next to the chocolate bikkie tin and container of chocolate and marshmallow slice above the pot of melted chocolate on the stove near the sink with all the chocolate brownies I just got out of the oven.
    Haha
    Did ya like THAT little fix then eh? LMAO *snicker*

It's not unreaznabul to be loved by anyone!!! If Tom Jones can say it that way, then so can you. Anyway, great execution etc, but it seems to me you are spending a lot of time discussing matters of FS procedures etc.. Now don't you get snotty with me, my girl.LOL

    Haha...very cute Reg! I guess when FS matters piss me to tears I gotta write about 'em...this has only happened on a few occasions but its happened twice with the same person and for goodness sake, I'd had enough.
    Speaking of enough, I've had enough of the procedures...and your cheek young man! LOL

    Long, long time since anyone called me "young man". Does my poor old heart the world of good, it does and all.
reply by the author on 14-Apr-2013
    Well I DID know you are slightly older than me Reg, however as my mum always says...you are only as old as you feel.

    Glad you're heart is feeling better. LOL

good abcb rhyme in stanza one and abba rhyme in the second and third stanzas, though my personal preference is to keep the same scheme
excellent use of enjambment to create good flow in your poem
I like the dialogue format
where the other person's replies are implied
a good satiric look at some of the unreasonable expectations some folks at fan story have with a message about how inappropriate their expectations are.
Brooke :-)

    Thanks Brooke and I thought it was abab in the first with the "iew" and "ou" rhymes same. I prefer any preference that sounds good and I felt this was strong throughout. Funny though, cos I have a bit of ocd and an odd stanza wouldn't happen like that normally...perhaps I'm letting my hair down a little these days...haha
    Yes some here have very unreasonable expectations but they damn well know who they are. Not come across this much but enough to piss me off and write about it recently.

I haven't fanned you yet...but I like your point of view so I am seriously considering it... :-) I felt the poem is definitely worthy of front page status - unlike some poems that are on the front page ahead of you. So people do pay exorbitant amounts to get on the front page - which is not where they belong...but that is just *my* point of view. Again - WELL done!

    LOL I was actually going to mention PLEASE NO FANSHIPS ON THIS POST in my authors notes...then I thought, No why would I knock back a fan. However I'm glad it appealed in some way. I appreciate your pov and yes the amounts of money wasted on incoherent drivel on the front page could feed a small starving country for a year.
    Cheers and thanks for a delightfully supportive review.
