  • Cyrik : So rested he by the Tumtum tree, and stood awhile in thought. on November 23, 2006
    I was drawn here for two reasons. One, because I saw that you left a fabulous (and helpful!) comment on a poem a friend of mine wrote. (She's new here at AP.) And two, because I saw your name again on the list of Reward poetry. (And three, because you have a really cool name! Love that poem!!)

    I've read a couple of your poems and have really really enjoyed them. I don't have the mood within me at this moment to give you any proper critiques, but I do plan to return.

    I noticed your system of judging? critiquing? on NoWayJo's poem Arbeit Macht Frei (allpoetry.com/poem/1511787). I really think that is an excellent idea, and I've never seen it before.

    Kudos to you!

    It's from a poem by Lewis Carroll (the guy who wrote Alice in Wonderland) and it's absolutely wonderful. ^_^ I love it. XD

    You're quite new. I'll have to read some of your work. Feel free to stop by my page any time.

    May I ask where you got your user name? I remember the "jabberwocky" from a movie with Denzel Washington. That's the only other place I've heard it. I loved the movie.

    I'm out for the night, but I'll try to read some of your poetry tomorrow. Good to have you here. Hugs, Patricia

    Jabberwocky

    'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
    Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
    All mimsy were the borogoves,
    And the mome raths outgrabe.

    'Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
    The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
    Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
    The frumious Bandersnatch!'

    He took his vorpal sword in hand:
    Long time the manxome foe he sought --
    So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
    And stood a while in thought.

    And, as in uffish thought he stood,
    The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
    Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
    And burbled as it came!

    One two! One two! And through and through
    The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
    He left it dead, and with its head
    He went galumphing back.

    'And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
    Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
    Oh frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
    He chortled in his joy.

    'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
    Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
    All mimsy were the borogoves,
    And the mome raths outgrabe.

    Lewis Carroll
