Rorschach in rhyme. At least you can text them, which you couldn't do with inkblots. Is this how we bring this technique into the 21st century? I'd better not try to analyse this any further.(I'm on iron tablets - getting rusty LOL
Thanks for the giggle.

This is spot on, or should that read blot on? You have somehow managed to pull another rabbit out of that dark and otherwise peculiar shaped mutant butterfly. Bravo Alan, not just good but very good in my book...........Neville

I thought this piece of nonsense was buried deeply enough but you found it Neville. I'm glad you found something in it!
Cheers,

Cathartic to say the least oh & thoroughly enjoyed....

[hi]

not use to this kind of writing,not sure how to take it,but it made me read it all so it must have been a good read,but like i said i dont know,maybe i am just to new to poems and things,tell me what kind of writing is this huh

Hi jason, I couldn't put this in any category but there are no rules in writing. You start off with blank paper and the world is your oyster. I was just having a bit of fun and playing with a couple of things that psychiatrists used to use (prob still do!) The Rorscharch ink blot test where patients were asked what they could see in random ink blots and also word association where the psychiatrist would say a word and the patient replied with another without thinking about it. The shape is meant to be the inblot and the words left and right are the pairs in the word association. I tried to though in a few teases also for a laugh. You don't really know if this is going to work out until you try it. Also there are a lot of writers that like to stick to conventions such as strict rhyming so don't take it too personally if they don't like something different.
Thanks again,
Alan

[hi]

the joys of psychologies pseudosciences! i can imagine playing word association with you would be very interesting haha.

[alanwgraham]

Thanks, I'm not sure about word games with you. You are fat too good at reading between the lines! This was just a bit of fun for me. The new directions/nude erections bit at the end came from a funny interview by Louis Theroux with a crazy American who thought he could sleep with any woman using subliminal messages like this. Hope you are still writing.

Hmm, kinda cool. I like this one.
Well done.

Thanks Ana, Just a piece of fun but its incredible that psychiatrists used these ink blot diagrams once!

Ha! Yeah, I wonder what the test might say about me! :)
