It's a new LJ meme. I like the idea, too.
Well, look at you. All dressed up in big sister's clothes.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I've enjoyed reading what people have had to say.
Still, it's a nerve-wracking "no one on EARTH will want to see a commentary for one of my things!" meme, the sort that turns otherwise rational people into insecure whingers.
Err, you know. In theory. Not that I'm speaking from experience. Err...

I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.
Do "Absolution".

Which would be pathetically easy, as I still have all the commented beta versions.
(Like my crisper, my writing directory contains things long past their sell-by date.)
(I probably will, because it had notes and outlines)

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
My writing commentary for just about any of my stories would go something like:
huh, oh! yeah... and then... oh!.. .but what happens.. OH!..... yeah!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I went ahead and annotated one of my fics and posted it on my live journal.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Huh. This meme sounds like, well it sounds like a marvelous opportunity for self-aggrandizement, or a marvelous opportunity for self-flagellation, depending on who tries it out.
I guess I'm pleasantly surprised at the restraint I've seen in the commentaries I have seen thus far.

I don't think I'd know what to say in a commentary. I get nervous enough putting the stuff out there, I don't think I'm ready to say "I put this phrase in because I think Willow watched that show when she was a kid" or "this is purely a piece of beefcake exploitation, but I think that's obvious."
