The master of the enigmatic super short short returns with a vengeance. Again this is a confusing and totally underdeveloped work with no beginning, middle or end. However I do enjoy your floral writing, it entertains me quite a bit in fact.

At 3 pages you're not taking up too much of my time, so what harm. I would like to hear your interpretation on your own work though. You might be able to shed some light on things.

I read this when it first showed up on the boards.  I didn't comment on it because I thought I just didn't get it  It sounds like you're comparing yourself to some of the more successful screenwriters, which is a little pretentious.

Yep, the dreaded, grossly overused "P" word can definitely be used to sum it up. He must know some secret we don't.

I don’t get it. As near as I can tell, a guy who talks to himself a lot likes to pretend to be various writers. And he likes to do this occasionally over a long period of time.

One line did grab my attention:

“A genius lies in a bath tub of money, or does a true genius lie at home with friends?”

Pure genius.
