Question: Did you see the 1st draft before all the comments?
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA! It rocks! Here is a philosophy poem. (The two are iinexplicably entwined)
Ever heard of the solipsism campaign for support?
Brilliant! This should be the goddam best poem! Its teenage life.
I can see the Odysseus thing - allt he sailing and beacon images. I think i would finish after 'again, safe', although 'throwing my ribs/ at her feet' is good'. Perhaps hold that over for a separate poem entirely? It find this last stanza difficult because i appreciate why you want those emotions there, and it does complicate your homecoming in an interesting way, but I think your expression is just too fevered.
Nice
A clerihew is a two-lined poem, the first being someone's name, the second being a (witty) rhyme with that name. Hope that clears things up - have a go yourself, 'tis very amusing!!!
This is shite.
I like Wesley's acting, you should see Passenger 57
Brilliant, I needed a laugh and you completely satisfied my warped humour.Just the thought of a monkey with a flamethrower...
Someone get this man a dictionary - please. And grammar tuition would also not go amiss.
One of your better efforts. 3.
Rubbish. 0. If your Dad "holves" you, it sounds as though he should be reported to the relevant authorities. Jesus, your poems' ratings are beginning to resemble binary code.
Damn right I am.
Nice. You combine the haiku with concrete poetry - the poem is jagged because of the lenght of the middle line.
Ezra would have been proud. The dirty fascist.
Nice. But I don't get the Nirvana reference.
There once was a strange man called George
Who from nowhere could fashion a war
He won notoriety
And caused much hilarity
His words he was forced to disgorge.
I'm sat in a library now. Books are very sensual things. Things are not as they appear to be.
I particularly like the contrast between the wholesomeness of bridge and baking and the wickedness of Ms Nin.
