I have written us down, typed us up, and sent us out.
they will edit us, and say some parts are no good.

but I want your run-ons, your lack of punctuation; and you are so easy
on my weak binding, my damaged spine.

i wrote something strikingly similar to this a while back. how strange, but not really.

i like the first part especially. :)
:iconvix0r:
This is just so deliciously simple. What a great metaphor. You have a gift for pithy writing. Good work.

Thank you, madam.

Words recycle, you know.

Take me anywhere- just not out of context.
:iconnonamepsalmist:
Pithy.

"I'm pithy."

Sounds so sad.
but thank you.

Brilliant:nod:

Really tender, yet still a bit sad:)

I(now) = I(now - Δt) + Δt ∙ I(now - Δt) for Δt → 0
:icontheunbeingdead:
but of course.
more often than not, they sound better the third or fourth time around- a better fit (i'd apply a metaphor, but it'd be redundant)
:iconnonamepsalmist:
haha.

Metaphors never go out of style.

agreed. but they can become tiresome.

i find that my english teachers try to ruin them for me.
:iconnonamepsalmist:
Then you should say, "Can you remember why you wanted to teach English? Can you remember the first word, the first line that grabbed you and took you captive?"

That will make them leave the poor metaphors (and you) alone.

Pithy is a great word!

If you'd prefer, though, you can think of it as concise, succinct, tiny-but-mighty, short and sweet... or whatever else floats your crank.
