Poems?

Postby Panik! » February 6th, 2011, 5:45 pm

So, I write poetry too... :P

First one:

Corrosion

No, I never told you
About the thing that’s breaking me,
Constantly shaking me
When I sleep at night


And I can’t tell,
Or I’ll finally shatter,
Finally scatter
The string that holds me together.


But this never-ending guilt,
It just won’t let go,
It just seems to grow
Until I’m completely corroded.

THE CREED: Nothing is True. Everything is Permitted.
"...That's rather cynical."

"It would be if it were doctrine, but it is merely an observation of the nature of reality.
To say that Nothing is True is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shephards of our own civilization.
To say that Everything is Permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with the consequences, whether glorious...or tragic."
-Ezio Auditore da Firenze explaining the Creed, 1514, Masayaf.

Always count on Riddah to corrupt something as beautiful as poetry. EVER HEARD OF /B/?? GO THERE. AND DON'T COME BACK.

The poem was great. The word choice, the theme, the pace, everything was great, until the end. The word "corroded" sounds a bit out of place or pace. And yes, I noticed the poem's title. But still.
Just remember this, when you see her on the street.

I really really like this. It's really pretty. I think all poetry, whether you like it or Not, is inspired. Never generic.

B-b-but that's just me. *avoids gunfire*

Actually, me, Venexis, and Jello all agreed the previous night that this poem was pretty generic.

...I don't think it is. I really like the word choice and other such things...

Course that's just me

You spoofed...a poem.

A poem.


















































:arrow:

Not the smiley face you were expecting, huh? :awe:

Yeah, and I hope you noticed that that doesn't work out too well. Poems are worlds apart from stories, the only similarity being that they're expressed in words.
