Look, the fact that you pointed out an incorrectly spelled word doesn't bother me in the least bit, im not so insecure that it upsets my emotions. Obviously no arguement arose with the "rogue" horus8 when he pointed it out to me, true the spelling he gave was also incorrect, but the man was simply following poetic tradition and was drunk. You come out of no where first making a big questionare over what I "fixed" simply to ridicule me, then make this large statement how mispellings aren't a joke, blah blah blah. What are you man? A robot who never makes mistakes? what pathetic creature holds value to some pathetic "maturity award" to bring pride and a boost to his ego. I don't know horus8 much, but from his work (which is 99.9% amazing) and his attitude compared to yours, he should be given your preciouse award of maturity, for he actually has character and personality, and lets not forget, a very strong sense of humor. So while you move in like some vultcher to make me bow down to your fragile glory, the "rogues" are making sure art still has its true roots.. your kind is the disgrace to poetry and art. Its quite sad really, I mention to you of possibly providing more constructive criticism for my poem, and you blab about maturity awards.. congradulations, your the perfect VIP for the next bloated company. ;)

You need to change your attitude. You need to approach criticism with a little more maturity. The site administrator is considering, on my recommendation, introducing an award for maturity on this site. I am one of the leading candidates for this award. Why? Because I take things seriously and don't dismiss constructive criticism under meaningless slogans like "mind you ONE word.."

ahh, yes. ok, well other than spelling, mind you ONE word.. would you like to add anything else we can consider constructive oh buddy pal to my eastern mystic poem? hrmm..?

I see, attempts to ridicule me have been cut quite short.. now i go back to pondering the absolutes along with a bong, notepad, and a glass of wine, pen in hand ready to write the next line.

Do accept my apologies. I thought we were old enough to dispense with the tedious baggage of social etiquette in favour of a more objective approach. Obviously I was wrong.

Thought i better give your reply a little more time then that, since you seem to 'care', so little of that in the world today... anyway no clue if you listen to metallica, but their new album, st anger, theirs a song called 'some kind of monster' u should listen, hear that... yep your totally correct in your grasp of human nature sir!

Many questions yes, and I will answer it: Fools with masks become blinded and fall to disgust and regret So now they must fret And decide who to blame... But aren't they still just blind fools all the same? Blind still, yes, for now they see black and white, but hey.. man.. WHERES THE GRAY?

I appreciate your help in perfecting my spelling good friend, but with the condescending tone of the criticism, hey, what can I say, I bite back. It doesn't mean I don't take it seriously.

But in a world where racism runs wide rife, how can you say colour is irrelevant?

We don't mind a bit of humor here at PoemeRanker from time to time. But when it comes to spelling, and more importantly our poetry, we can't afford to "laugh off" our mistakes. I had hoped you would receive my constructive criticism with a little more solemnity.

color is irrelevant, for every person has a different set of colors to represent themselves. So, it can damn well be blue mixed with shitty brown for all i can guess.

Learn? ah, yes, learn, i will learn to double check other peoples spelling, and ill call up a publishing company and ask to be the next top editor, so i can get right down to the core of not letting writers commit sin with the pen... oh how they shall fear the possibility of not dotting the I when im done with them. =P All in good humor no? :)

Do you think black people sometimes wear white masks?

There is no excuse for poor spelling. I'll be speaking to the site administrator about this; not maliciously, you see. Merely to inform him of the facts. PoemeRanker is a site for serious poetes with serious ambitions. We are constantly plagued by rogue individuals such as "horus8" or "nentwined", who have barely mastered The Art of Spelling, let alone The Art of Verse. This isn't an elitist institution, mind you; we merely want to avoid the purposeless felchings of those whose stupidity ranks in the "dangerous" category. I hope you have a good time here, SupremeDreamer. And, most importantly, I hope you have learnt something. Good Christ, I hope so...

most wear masks (aka false ego) to deal with all the wonderfull insecurities people have with themselves and insecurities with how the world will/might percieve them in the lil squishy globe called earth i hold in my hand. yes captain, i keep the faith, but the question is: does that make me enlightened, or just another fool worshiping dead scrolls?
