Oh poor old mad English poet. You wish for the days of yore when the world spat at your name and called your queen a whore. But alas your torch has been passed to a younger more vibrant shore as your empire rots away like your teeth and the world now thinks you're a bore.

i will refrain from voting due to the subject itself, one that i am 1) ot qualified to discuss due to a lack of knowledge and, 2) because i am still skeptical of the "story" of jesus. somehow this seems like it would be written in one of those inspirational cards i always manage to stumble upon when card shopping for birthday/holiday occasions. i guess they just come off a little forced to me, or maybe i am just too cynical to get the "inspiration". the meter is consistent, but the message seems a little over-repetitive (but not too much so). i don't think it matters if there is a rhyme scheme. however, if you rhyme one verse and then switch back to non-rhyming and then rhyme again, it is a little distracting. i found myself trying to think of alternate words/phrases instead of just reading... i would suggest a strong rhyme pattern or none at all, especially with a strong tempo.

It's a wonder that you care about his sanity.

Re: My secret to life by amanda_dcosta	crazyknight 203.145.159.44	23-Jun-06/11:12 AM
no greater love has a person than to give his life for another. in life the only thing we truly have is our life, to give it for another living 2000 yrs later makes me wonder about his sanity........

Thanks a ton Al. I'm actually surprised at the response from you guys. Much more than what I expected it to rate. Now lets look out for what Ranger has to say and then I'll be satisfied.
Re: My secret to life by amanda_dcosta	ALChemy 71.75.188.128	23-Jun-06/6:20 AM
I liked this alot. Especially the last half. Very inspirational. I'll probably be stuck at the DMV half the day today but I get 4 days off from work (WaHoo!:) So maybe I can catch up on my poem reading here and get in some good debates again.

typo - by-pass not bad, I like the occasional rhyme and the fact you wrote what followed on well as opposed to rhyme overdose.
Re: Money Back by drnick	amanda_dcosta 202.164.143.27	22-Jun-06/10:49 PM
Hmmmmm. I like the last two lines that sum up the first six lines . Other than that I ain't relating much to it although I get the scene. Sorry to disappoint.
Re: a comment on My secret to life by amanda_dcosta	amanda_dcosta 202.164.143.27	22-Jun-06/10:44 PM
Wow Nick... Thanks and good to see you back. I've asked Jesus whether he likes you.... and he says.... as always! Where have you been and how are you? :-)
Re: My secret to life by amanda_dcosta	drnick 24.176.22.254	22-Jun-06/10:34 PM
Who is this Jesus fellow??? He sounds facinating/fictional. Will you pass this note to him for me? Dear Jebus, Do you like me? YES [] NO [] MAYBE [] Thanks. Heart, Nick

Would love to read your paper some day. Evolution has a problem without mutation. Evolution without mutation will mathmatically and of course logically reach a platue at which there is no more room for improvement/change. But what is mutation? Some kind of accident or an act of god or niether. What causes a rhino to be born with an extra horn? Well ramblings aside- Last time I checked the US was gettin' whooped, But it's not as big over here at least not yet.

That's not fair Ranger. While you guys take on the world cup, poor us who are non athlethic have to take on poemranker, struggling to give it a lift. :-) Spare a hand here... won't you, plz.
