Big G, I accept that you are sensitive, refined, and rather precious personality, and it grieves me deeply that you are unable to accept my compliments as they are intended.
At no time have I implied that your skilfully crafted pantuns are childish rhymes, rather I offered a suggestion that may avoid them being thought of as such by those who are unfamiliar with your culture.
I miss the point of your comment in respect of your "--- lack of applied intelligence---"
Only a moment ago, in your post #8 , you likened the composing of pantuns to an exercise in intelligence, and I for one would not debate this with you.
As for respect, it does tend to find its own level.
You know Big G, I once knew a woman who could read a telephone book and find a story between the lines.
I rather suspect that you may have a similar ability.
