I like this one! Logan's little book in Shorties in Love has inspired a lot of stuff. At least I think that this is a poem that he would have included.

Thanks.

Love it. "my cat" that just made me smile :). Nice balance, not too "happy" and not too hopeless. Think i hafta go and watch Pilot now.

hey mum. i didnt log you out so it says im kasman but who cares?anyway i love chimera.its such a lovely poem.

I just read your A/N before I started writing this, and it says what I was about to suggest...I would love to see a poem for every episode, perhaps? Anyway, like I said over at catherder's poem, I'd never thought I'd find myself reviewing poetry (completely underqualified to do so), but I'll try.

And you don't know why I say poetry is harder than prose? You just captured the entire essence and spirit of the pilot in...about 350 words. To me, that is talent. What writer said short stories are infinitely harder than novels? Then poetry must be the hardest, because you have to understand and use language so well to express many ideas and emotion in few words. You do a great job of that here.

And I have to mention that this may be the best description I've ever read of Max:

"Smart, sexy, sassy –

a sarcastic whirlwind of a girl –

tough and funny and vulnerable."

There are maybe a couple of words in here I might change or rearrange given the chance, but it works as is also. I'm impressed by your ability and hope to see more soon. )

Haven't read poetry in years - this is very refreshing. You captured Max's attitude, Logan's hope, and a hint of the sadness of what is to come.

I liked it. I liked the use of actual lines in it.

"My cat". Nice touch especially the repeated my.

Logan's way of admitting his feelings towards her even then.

Hope your muse strikes again soon.

A wonderful retelling of the pilot! I wish we had reruns here :)

I loved this one. It completely captures Logan's fascination with Max and the hope for something 'more' that she brings to his life. My favorite lines:

my new girlfriend…

He should mind his own business,

the 250 pound ex cop taken out by a size 3

I especially like the 'my new girlfried', stated almost as if it were an admission fact. Then the 'He should mind his own business' followed reminding us that it was Peter who said that and Logan wasn't quite ready to acknowledge it. Wonderfully well done!

Yes, he can. There is so much between them, this is a beautiful recap of the begining of their relationship. Let's hope they can work things out eventually.

OMG! You've got reruns? JEALOUS! I'm like so totally desperate to see the Pilot, but they never do reruns here... Damn, it sucks you know? Now onto the critism - I liked it!

Wow... I had goosebumps through out... that was very intense. Love how you insert their spoken words to add the effect of realism... very nice. More please.

Ahhh, so great to revisit the pilot, and from Logan's perspective. The only thing I wonder about is that the poem starts out by saying "A year ago," but the rest of it sounds like it's narrated in real time. Otherwise, great, and I'm looking forward to seeing what else S1 inspires you to write.

As a fellow Aussie I feel you. You gotta deal with what we've had to with television to know what we're talking bout people. The Australian netwroks are covered in Reality shows and stupid Game Shows. They got to improve. Fantastic poem that flows beautifully.

The muse strikes again! :)
