Yes, it was a metaphorical allusion to the
dead horse of your pseudonymous personae.
Some of the things this pseudonym has contributed
to poetryetc were offensive or could easily
be seen as offensive. I refer to the repeated (six
times) posting "poets and suicide" on July 1, which
followed another post called "poets and suicide"
which you signed off:-
I still find fascinating the idea of
accomplishing the dissolution of ones person by means of creativeness.
Susanne
Youth suicide and mental ill-health was under constructive discussion at
poetryetc at the time: this sort of stuff (your "suicide posts")
as history, means that your more recent
posts seem disagreeable by association. Alison Croggon
is not wrong to say "Pseudo-Susanna has (I think) made
some interesting points" but as you seem increasingly to
suggest your real identity is Erminia Passananti, can you
please drop the (sometimes offensive) pseudonymous
charade. You should also consider an apology for the
"suicide" posts.
Your early hoaxing was offensive in context.
please desist with this particular pseudonym
yours faithfully
Hugh Tolhurst
