I like this one very much!. Why does it make me smile when I read it!? It is not Lucretia's story!. It must be the form then, which is pleasant to read!.
I tried to write a Trigee this morning!. No way!.

Yes, I like it!. This one reads much better if you jump across the dots on each line!.
Because you had the hubris to resolve the question before I got a chance to respond, The Board of Directors of the Poetry Section, Department of the Objective and the Objectionable has compelled me to inform you that you did not learn well what Ms!. Haug taught you!. In colloquial speech it is common to substitute the objective (him and me) for the subject!. However, when these two folk are the object it IS correct to use the objective "him and me!." An easy way to figure which is correct is to subtract one of the pronouns and see how it sounds!. You might think that "Mrs!. Haug taught grammar to he and I," sounds more elegant!. But what you are saying is, she taught it to he, and she taught it to I!.
The Board regrets the necessity of this Public Chastisement, and suggests you might permit the use of email!. To ameliorate this harsh degree, The Board directed me to relate that their decision not to put points on your Poetic License was in consideration of the many and varied contributions to the Poetic Community that far outweigh the gravitas of this chickenshyt complaint!.
P!.S!. One of your questions was deleted, presumably because you replaced the first letter of "like" with a k, resulting in an offensive term for my people!. I wish to assure you that not for one moment did I think this was intentional, and anyone with half a brain (which is what I have) would agree!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Oh, yes! A classic Trigee!. Note: one day on the Internet makes a classic!. Isn't instant communication fun!? Now I have to try one from Greek mythology!. (Spell Chick wants me to call a Trigee a "Trigger" or a "Triage")!. Yahoo needs triage!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think I will not write a seperate book on your Trigee, I will just tell you, Yeah, I like it!. And yeah they are kinda fun when you get past the quadruple migraine of the first one!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
