We did have nice, philosophical conversations...those were the days...I'm well, finishing up school this semester, and then continuing on to complete uncertainty. The rate at which I hate my work has increased to every time I complete about 4 lines so I haven't been writing much. Well, time to go shoot myself in the face again.

nice to know you're still writing about me ;)

in all seriousness, very nice...how have you been?

dude, how have you been? do you still exist?!

You forgot my other names: the anti-christ, enlightened one, Dr. God, The Everlasting Godstopper, and super lesbian dead-fetus Jesus.

I'm not sure I deserved a response such as this, but thank you. This is very good, however im not completely sure of the over-all message you're trying to convey here. And evil is not a mystery, evil is me. I am evil, I am the DEVIL (woogy-boogy).

Hahaha, nice.

Exactly, nice hai-poo...it asks the question I've been afraid to ask myself thus far.

Inspiring with its complexity.
Amazing, I need to go rethink my life.

This has to be country lyrics because the only way you could get away with this simplistic nonsense is if you were singing it to a bunch of inbred republicans. Do you honestly think you're improving? Do you even care? Do you actually spend the amount of time from one post to another for working on these lyrics? Let me break it down for you:

YOU ARE TERRIBLE, THESE ARE THE WORST "LYRICS" I HAVE SEEN/HEARD SINCE YOUR LAST POST. EITHER STOP WRITING OR HEADBUTT THE SHARP END OF A KNIFE.
on Your Eyes by Dovina 17 Oct 2006, 8:45 PM
This seems quite different from what you normally write, but I definately like it!
replying on Crappy by drnick 17 Oct 2006, 8:42 PM
I do believe that they are, but I do not believe they "emerged somehow". That would imply that I believe that they once did not exist, which is not true. Like the universe, they have always existed and always will exist. They will exist whether the universe congregates into another "big bang" or if it expands infinitly forever. Perhaps this view is not very poetic, but then again neither is my poetry (zing!). May I ask as to what your opinion may be? I find it hard to less than no faith at all.

Perhaps you have some advice(since that's what comments are intented for)???
replying on Crappy by drnick 17 Oct 2006, 1:31 PM
I will explain both the cause and the cause's cause.

Cause: The rain sliding down the window is caused by a force, particularly gravitational force. The attractive force of gravity between the earth's mass and the rain's mass is allowed to acclerate the droplet because it has a greater magnitude than that of the force of static friction in the opposite direction. The gravitational potential energy the droplet has is now transferring to kenetic and thermal energy. This is why the rain slid down the window.

Cause's Cause: I'm not sure what you mean by "cause's cause" so I'll answer both ways...#1 The gravitational force was caused by both the droplet and the earth having a non-zero mass. Without mass, there is no grav. force. #2 This question is inherantly a theological one as you are assuming there is a reason for gravitational force. For it to have a reason, it would have to benefit from it's action: attracting masses together. As of now, I know not of any benefit to any law of physics for existing. You are trying to place human qualities on something that is not human, not living, not material.

I wouldn't mock a question like that, it was a good question.

It's about being atheist, and how nothing is this world is all that great without the meaning that we create for it. Just as rain sliding down the window is not all that profound unless I had made it (which you pointed out i did not).

the final rhyme was meant to be too direct, as I thought it would be "sappy" to end that way.

the rewriting of the world line just means this person could really make a difference in the world, change things.

This piece of shit was inspired by Dovina's poem, "A Scientist's Prayer". So thanks, Dovinator(that's my new name for you).

Jesus was a pussy. I love pussy. => I love Jesus.

"Forevermore, nevermore."??????? I sense a severe lack of effort and just like love is enslavement, rhyming seems to have enslaved you.

I like the line "aware of her insignificance" as I can relate. This is how I feel posting on here, though I do still keep going unlike the person of whom you write. If you used some awkward wording in this it might force the reader to feel what she may have felt on the podium.

Yes! You know I love this one, how could I not? I agree that your title could be better, but it's just a title. I also agree with nyp on the first stanza, but I would change it to:

For she left me and (she/then) wandered off
While I sat there in despair
For she left me and (she/then) wandered off
And never told me where

And, again, agreeing with nyp (guy is giving some tastey advice), the last line should be "With no road back to me". Other than that I like every fucking letter of this poem. nice!
