then what are we supposed to write about?
Check out the book "Helter, Skelter" by Vincent Bugliosi...or rent the movie if you're not into books. The movie is not great, though....
Have I stumbled into a private club here. I thought it was for comments on poems. Not to change the subject, but I happen to like this one.
A party where someone skewers her on a punt pole and sands off her feet.
By my rough count, the next time lydia evelyn or CLS responds to an unflattering characterization of her physical appearance or personality with "How did you know?" will be the 50th. We should plan some sort of commemoration. A party, perhaps.
That is the sappiest thing I've ever read. To say the least its wretched. To say the most its honest but lacking in both the wonder that is love and the writing that is poetry. I hope this impressed your "lover" because thats the only person you should have shared this set of words with. This type of peom is whats known as a Pimple. I should know I've written alot of them before they even had it as a poem type. Read more verse. Good Verse. Then try writing. Exsamples here being -=Dark_Angel=- to show you shear verbal skill and intelligence, Godswife and Horus8(In his many different usernames) for depth, humor, and emotion. -2- Just because its honest, horrid, but honest.
Regarding the 'point', consider this: If I were such a drunken fuck-up as the narrator of this story, I probably wouldn't read poetry or have the self-awareness to recognize the narrator's situation as being like to my own (or to care if I did.) Ditto for you as writer. So this poem could mean nothing to an actual drunk living a boring self-destructive life; he would most likely not change his behavior in the slightest, even if he did happen to read it. Nor could it mean anything to me as a non-self-destructive non-boring reader, except to make me feel a little good and self-righteous about not being a boring drunk, which I don't really care for in a poem - and which is a false self-righteousness, anyway, since it's not a real drunk I'm feeling better than but a creation of your non-drunk imagination. A simple way to fix this is to position your actual self in the poem watching the drunk. Then you don't have to deal with the problem of the drunk's self-awareness and we can learn all kinds of interesting things about you which aren't fictional - that you're the kind of person who would write about a boring drunk, to say the least. And it would necessarily be true and believable.
what do yu mean?? i hope I havne't offended you because i'm truely sorry if so :(
Perhaps you could tell me what sort of 'constant partying' you've been doing that doesn't involve a hangover. Do people's parents make you go home at 10:30? Or are you under the pathetic delusion that you can have a good time without drugs?
you are a bad man.
In Poem School where I currently attend we are frequently required to perform hideous 'Poetry Drills' involving rapid de-ambiguification of famous and infamous poems while jumping quickly in place on our desks. The professors and other staff stand around us, mocking our efforts and not-infrequently pulling our uniform sweatpants down to our ankles (Poetry Drills often taking place on Gym Day for exactly that reason.)
That said, the one interpretation I missed is that TPBOD is your name, which makes me sorry for having made so much fun of your poem. I wouldn't have been so harsh if I'd known it was you.
I have no idea what a hangover feels like, much less radiation, so I'm gonna say both but niether in the way you are thinking
Beautiful. Just beautiful. The point is meaninglessness. And it took you a whole of what? 10 seconds? 15? I bow before you, oh mighty understander of all things written.
