: : : : : Hey Short Round, I know this is none of my business but what's that mean? I'm not really good in poetry and all that but it does sound rather nice. Whatzit mean? Hope I didn't sound too shallow there..hehe.

: : : : What DOES it mean?! That we are as ugly as crows in a sea of doves?!!!!!
: : : : Neat poetry, "Basho" Round!!
: : : : Adventurously,
Come on man...
"O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!
It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
As a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear-
Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear.
So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows
As yonder lady o'er her fellow shows."

Regardless of where you got it, it is most definately Shaskespeare
