X.P. - you bring us the most interesting ...

I hesitate to say "forms" because I think you're bringing us processes as much as forms.

Whether I try them or not, you wake up my mind in delightful ways.

Thanks for that and for this post.

lollollollol You sent me down a couple of rabbit holes into a delightful new adventure! Leave it to you, X.P., to come up with fabulous titles for those little ditties! Here's my reply to you (my 1st flarf ever--I assume I'll get worse or more perverse with practice)

Flarffy and He at the Dog Park

stumblingawkwardjarring

stumblingawkwardjarring

took his doggerel off the leash

let it run until in a

zeugma moment she

broke his heart and his chiasmus

broke his flarffing license

broke his dangling participle

many that are first/shall be last/

maintaining proper grammer

poetry will be dead in 15 minutes.

If I have time in the next week or so, I’ll try a Flarf. Yours are fresh and fun!

I searched for titanium / lyrics and got the lyrics to a song called, well, “Titanium,” with certain flarf-like qualities: “You shoot me down, but I won't fall / I am titanium” (repeat x3).
