Oh man. That song? Awesome. *emails it to my friends from Spain*

Heh. You may be insane, but we'll all be happy to read more fic written by you!

LOL! Yeah, I just plugged it in and went b'zuh?!

I'll try to translate it... it's all about puns, which don't normally do well going from one language to another ;)

Where did you get that poem? It's... interesting, for lack of another word ;-) Wow, I don't think you're insane, you just have a lot to give to the community... XD

Can I point out some spelling correction the poem needs?

Cheers!

An aunt of mine. A rather prissy aunt of mine, who had a bewildering array of dirty jokes and poems at her disposal :)

Can I point out some spelling correction the poem needs?
Oh, absolutely! I may have mentioned before that I have never in my life taken a single formal Spanish class.

Sorry for the delay, and yes you have mentioned that before, just some accents.

Si pública es la mujer que por puta se reputa,
La puta, reconocida, re-pública ha de ser.
Y siguiendo el proceder
De esta lógica absoluta,
Aquel que se reputa
Ser de República hijo
Ha de ser, a punto fijo,
El hijo de una gran puta

I've just marked between italics the words that needs to be corrected.

Heh. Due to my teenage obsession with Latin-American soaps I can more or less understand the fist and the last line... Which makes me really wonder about what's in between.

Enjoy RL!!

Haha, I know the odd feeling of wanting to be in a fest, but for me I know that it could end up bad/ completely stressed and I don't want the fandom adding to that!
