@balinares Oh dear.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@Leucrotta @kistaro @Soreth Yeah. Seriously. I honestly do think that a little academic experience could do wonders for this woman. Just a crash course in meter and traditional structures and the fact there's more to poetry than rhyming couplets with zero scansion.

@kistaro @Soreth (good line!)

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@Austin_Dern AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHH, she's so sweet and sincere and bad at this.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@Austin_Dern Her site is such a glurge factory D:

BRACE YOURSELF for this one.

@Soreth @kistaro

The dead swans lay in the stagnant pool.
They lay. They rotted. They turned
Around occassionally.
Bits of flesh dropped off them from
Time to time.
And sank into the pool's mire.
They also smelt a great deal.

@Soreth @kistaro I dunno, I do get serious Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings vibes from her.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@kistaro As do a guy in a jumpsuit and a couple of robots. :D

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@kistaro It's like, fractally awful. ;_____; I could have just as easily said "pathos" instead of "bathos." I just want to give this woman a hug and say something really nice about... her makeup or cooking or grandkids or something, anything to steer the topic from her poetry. O_o;;;

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@kistaro SHE ENDED *THREE* LINE WITH "FOR SURE." I CAN'T HANDLE THIS.

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@kistaro OH GOD I JUST NOTICED SHE RHYMED "SURE" WITH "CURE" TWICE. D: D: D: D: D: D: D: D: D:

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

@balinares Not familiar?

re: "Hey, Empress? Can you define 'bathos' for us in one image?" 

(I feel kind of terrible for that, I looked at her website and she at least seems like a kind and sincere woman, but... yikes.)
