BRB thinking of band names so we know what kind of band we are.

The Crooked Barrels
The Redcurves
Rosewood
Dan's Daddys
Opulens Orchestra
Dearly Deleted

There's lots of good inspiration here

Not to harp on about my own wit, but my vote is for Dearly Deleted

Dearly Deleted 11/10

Rebuttal: One

You make it seem tempting, whoever you are
While calling out locals to make them the star
For who isn't happy when able to claim
That shadowy figures now know them by name

You asked and they answered and now one is gone
Are others we speak to about to be drawn?
What nightmare has landed, for good can't be found
When leaders toss money on unhallowed ground

Who are you? What brought you, dear Woman in Black?
Art cultist? Or demon, set up to attack?
Or could thou be ancient society hidden
Whose sacrifice, rituals, gods you have bidden

To claim those who step close, who dare fire's touch
Who knowing so little have promised so much
For any with senses will recognize truth
It's easy to hornswoggle innocent youth

So here is the warning both inside and out
This group may seem tempting but never do doubt
There's darkness and evil that sours all sweet
And any they wish they can simply...delete

If I'm the person that set off the increasing glut of poetry you're seeing, then I either apologize profusely or am glad to be of service, depending on your point of view.

[opulens]

This is quite incredible.

Blessings.

[SlightlyChard]

This is quite incredible.

Blessings.

Thank you Opulens.
Perhaps I'll make one of you some day. But that also means we'd have to become friends first.

That comes with reciprocal expectations of trust, respect, loyalty and honor. Fellowship. Brotherhood.
Is reciprocity (and ex-ante agreements in fair/acceptable compromise) agreeable? Can we be friends?

I don't think YOU are the person. You may be part of a group. But my poem, at least, wasn't aimed your way. It was a rebuttal, as listed.

Some of us don't have the ability to draw beautifully, to our constant sorrow.

The red string brigade will be along very shortly to talk about Tarot, rune translations, and Rosicruscionism.

Blessings 7:

For those who have the eyes to see
Full many clues have come to be
Of arrogance and wealth and trouble
That soon will have its portion double

And in the growth, abundance flows
Envelopes by the Crooked Rose
But lest we look at them askance
That only care about finance

Or maybe what they seek is more
Could it be views that they adore?
Seeking fame across the nation
In hopes it brings them restoration?

Their cries for people seem so odd
When all we know is that some God
Has some connection meaningful
That they believe a miracle

Which God? What strong, immortal one
Will bring its presence when 'tis done
What Force? What cult will get to dine
When comes this being so divine?

'We have arrived.' They say, upon repeat
And 'Blessings' when new folks they meet
But different blessings can you see
Depending on your family

So what you wanted, twice returned
And safety based on what you earned
Your everything at once restored
And miracles, so you're not bored
Within a god's presence you'll be
Serene in it's divinity
Your clan, your lineage kept strong
Deliverance before too long

These seven things should come to be
If you believe
If you stand true
If your faith is strong
Then Blessings Be.

There is no easy way to say this and it's taken me multiple viewings of your lovely art for me to know the question I must ask;

What *exactly* is Elmo doing?

[blondie]

What *exactly* is Elmo doing?

Squatting? Or maybe… pooping the bed?

[Lexthewolf]

Opulens... what does it look like they're doin?

They're poppin a squat.

Listen I used to be really into lifting weights….

[campbellstruts]

Lifting weights is my passion.

Briana reminded me of something and I just want to mention it here before I forget:

If you made artwork of me/for me, I want to purchase it. You guys just blew me away with everything and I seriously appreciate it. Get with me/I’ll get with you and we can discuss further!!!

Love you guys
