Can i ask you what the ebola virus and depeche mode has to do with political statements? Not a fucking thing. lol. Nor was that the intention. You are lost in america. This poem is about dying with style, now why don't you hurry along and find some style of your own at the public library down the block.
Thanks, Orpheus, is from there, and almost every famous greek based music myth, and gods, and the ultimate muses originated from there. I'm just doing my duty for the world and my ancestors with this ode. Growing up a bit, if you will, just for a spell. You and the dark one usually rate poems at the same time every day. Is that because it's around the time England wakes up for muffins and tea? do you drink tea or coffee in the morning or vice versa? by the way , "time machine" with Guy Pierce... Fucking heaves! Thought you should know in case you attempt to rent, and if it's to late, i'm sorry.
Some stains come clean, some don't. I do. You don't. I'm going to England in May, wanna come? I'll push you and clean you and tuck you in, as Jesus would..
Well the way I look at it is, everyone else that has read the poem understood it quite well. Now if Jay is unable to read it and get it, that's really a personal problem.
A long time ago, I used to think that my poetry was good because it was hard to understand. After many years I realized my poetry was hard to understand because I was an untalented hack who's unable to say things clearly and precisely.
So I got a job.
lol. well it wouldn't stop crying ... i had to.
(note: i never actually hurt an infant .. that actually refers to the september 11 mixture of the poem)
JESUS CHRIST, HOW COULD YOU DO SUCH THINGS TO A POOR INNOCENT LITTLE INFANT!!!!!!!!!!!!
well my dear sweet jay ... that makes me happy. if my poetry is too hard to understand then i'm doing something right. but for your sake, allow me to explain. this poem is a mixture of things. one - september 11. two - my own personal experience with fights. if it still makes no sense, well then it never will.
Thanx this is my first real attempt at this so it kinda sux.
u can make this better
Im not sure what happened with those ? marks either, I put a ' but they changed or somthin
i'm not sure what ur sayin here
hahaha exactly.
i think u should do more then kiss
hmm...ok, but could use more feeling
ok
after which, you can simply change the title to "man choking on own figurative vomit saved by beautiful woman"
God's test is the GCSE Religious Studies examination. I got a C even though I didn't revise! Clever or what!?!?!
I think what you've done here is confused "poetry" with "a series of uneventful anecdotes about childhood". A good try though! 10!!!
I would suggest the following changes:
"Another Dull Moment" --> " "
"Another boring moment" --> " "
"I search these desolate streets for signs of life" --> " "
"I am overcome with calamity and strife" --> " "
"Plagued by this earthly mindset" --> " "
"The world is plotting against me" --> " "
"Day and night it plans my demise" --> " "
"My eyes are dimming" --> " "
"The light in this place has long since faded" --> " "
"I choke on the dark" --> " "
"As slowly I am suffocated" --> " "
"I turn my eyes" --> " "
"As I take my last breath" --> " "
"I see your face" --> " "
"And I am in wonder at your beauty" --> " "
"So perfect so picturesque" --> " "
"You take your hand in mine" --> " "
"No longer do I look for a sign" --> " "
"No longer do I search for a reason" --> " "
"The vail is lifted" --> " "
"I stand up and slowly look around" --> " "
"The light comes" --> " "
"And I slowly understand" --> " "
"Why I?ve wasted all this time" --> " "
"Why I?ve wasted all these years" --> " "
"Why I?ve thrown away these moments" --> " "
"Why I?ve used up all tears" --> " "
" Time has come" --> " "
"And time has gone" --> " "
"But you stand here" --> " "
"My longing heart has found no answers to speak of" --> " "
"No longer must I search for reason" --> " "
