Very funny and nicely done. It makes me laugh at myself. Welcome to Poemranker.
Poetry is something you read after you have written it and eliminated the obvious mistakes. It's a fine point I know, but try to master it.
Thought provoking. I can hear it with an acoustic guitar from a coffee house stool. Not bad.
A blatant and predictably sexist response.
9/11 was a tradegy for all concerned. But I think the term "boss man" contains redundancy, because all bosses are men by default. You might also consider replacing "lesser" with "female" :( -no vote-
A superb commentary on the mindset of today's international youth culture. Your vulgarity and absurdly emphasized rhyme scheme are in perfect keeping with their vulgar sexuality and lack of culture. Sublime.
your imagery is pretty but vague and empty. specify.
excise the banal phraseology: "connect the dots," "secrets... hidden in plain view." overall, though, with potential.
One of the better Haikus I've seen in a while.
Green Day is ok. I guess but they do kind of suck. Sorry RION12 I have to go with Blindpoetry.DON'T HURT ME LATER!!!!!
Fuch you. If you think Green Day sucks you suck because they are great.
The first 2 verses say it all and pretty well. Consider dropping the last.
That link - it's a good read.
Thanks for the link. That was quite an informative site.
I'm gonna repost it, and make it clearer.
You recently told someone that the 10 you gave him was the only sincere 10 you gave that day. Perhaps your comment flows from the same kind of reasoning that uses âyourâ as a contraction for âyou areâ because itâs âfunny.â Or maybe itâs from the sort of logic that posits an implied proposition in this poem and than rents in vulgarities on the falsity of your straw man. Or the same kind of insight that claims world hunger as a an argument against what this poem is saying.
Oh, guru of sensibility and logic, please teach on.
it's good to get this out of your system, but...

yes maam. gonna post a comment on alfies poem. Introduce an old poet. You might find it helpful. I still go here sometimes.
G'mornin' T-Driver. If your "Boss" comment above means that you think the boss in this pooem is a boss boss then you are the only one who thinks it means what I think it means.
Friends anymore? My God, if that was friendship, what horrors lie ahead?
