Well rick, 4 0's thus far. What you're saying is not news, nor how you go about saying it, novel. In fact, your philosophy is out-of-date and no longer true. Didn't you see Titanic? Mr Cameron's heroes learn their lesson's just for you. There is no reality. Nothing is motionless. The future does not exist. this poem is a relic from a time when humans believed in fate. You must be very young.
I don't think of them as bizarre. I chose the title when I wrote the poem back in 1982, because every one I knew either didn't believe these activities went or condemned them.
I'm bored. that's seconds I can't ever get back.
what the god?
There's nothing wrong with being pedantic - it's just attention to detail. Oh, and could somebody explain the feud between Blade, Tintagiles and Maria - every poem one of them has written seems to be followed up by a slanging match from the other two. What's all that about?!?!
The line "they snuck a bullet into King" is good. I do not care for the rest.
Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever. Whatever.
Whatever.
Don't worry, Bachus! I know it's tough to be a working street poete, but some day I'm sure you'll be as good as me! Here's a three step guide to getting back on your feet:
1. Get a life buddy.
2. Stay off the hard stuff. It might be fun now, but it'll hurt you in the long run.
3. Get out a little! Socialise a little!
Ok? Friends? Great! I look forward to seeing you improve over the next few weeks and months!!
Indeed it was.

This is no better. It is still a badly put statement of the very obvious. It's as idiotic as anything Bush ever said.
Actually, if it was written this badly as an ironic statement on Bush's inability to speak coherently, it's a work of genius. But I somehow doubt that.

yaaaargh! the crap!
You did do something boring. This poem. Don't you think comparing yourself to Christ, Malcolm, Rizal and King is a bit pretentious? Though I'm glad you kept Lincoln, Kennedy, and Rabin out of the list. Though you might have added Lumumba and Gandhi.
nice and short. also surprising from you. a little sentimental. not sure you can have orphans in a poem unless they are being thrown from a bridge.
believe me, you'll get over it.

there's not much poetry in this poem. besides, bill clinton was the biggest warmonger US president since truman dropped the Bombs on the Japs. what were the crusades all about if christianity isn't for warmongers? look at Pope Alexander VI. he had the biggest standing army of any organized religion in the history of this race of ours. who said it first: "alas, so many poems, so few poets"?
SHUT UP WHAT ARE YOU TALJKING ABOUT. IT DOESN'T EVEN RHYME
This is Blade's friend, Sadistic Hippy, and I have got to tell you that he isn't gay...honest
I STILL HATE YOU
THIS POEM IS UTTER RUBBISH
It can be arranged for a small fee!!!!!!
Oh and im not gay muther-fuckers!!
