Yes, Michael Monkey Peabrain (MMP) has returned, as Will and I
suspected. Even the name of his new sock, "HarryLime", looked like an
obvious clue to the "third man" on Team Monkey (the other two being
Jim/Edward and NancyGene). So we devised a way to have him out himself:
Will would bump up an old thread, I'd reply to it, and if "Harry" were
MMP, he wouldn't be able to resist replying. And it worked.

It's "Jerk store!" time, again.  George Dance re-responds to a post I
made almost two years ago (because he thinks I'm no longer here to smack
him around).

If further proof that this is MMP were needed, here it is: he walked
right into the trap, and he's still clueless that it even happened.

The above passage demonstrates why so-so poets should avoid

GD: That's because it wasn't a "sentence" until "Edward" added the full

Years conspire to decrease possibilities.

GD: Exactly what the poem says, which Michael would have discovered if

had bothered to look it up. He didn't even need to look it up on line;
he could have found it in his own "literary journal" (AYOS 2021, 10).

MMP: My literary journal was created to highlight the best examples of

not necessarily measure up to the best poetry of Member J.

As Mr. Dance has so ably demonstrated above, his own poem left no traces

MMP's memory lapses are something I'm sure we're all familiar with by
now. But let us remember what else I just ably demonstrated: that back
in 2021 (when he was still hoping to recruit me as an ally) he
considered Possibilities one of "the best examples of poetry" on AAPC.

Look who's taking.

George's triolet is a classic example

While your poetry is sing song doggerel garbage, Pendragon.
HTH and HAND.
