1 + 8 + 3 = 12 12 = 3 times 4 3 = the number of God 4 = the number of the universe Therefore 12 = the number of everything So if you were writing a gospel of revelations, 183 could indeed be highly symbolic. Or it could be a number plucked purely at random off a number tree. I really don't know.

You don't seem to have ever read actual poetry.
Re: Numbers In Heaven by Dovina	zodiac 206.174.124.170	13-Mar-06/9:01 AM
You're doing it again and you know it. And you know I know it. There is nothing eternal about 183. Nor is there any point thinking so. In short, you fail in the most eternal possible respect.

i agree completely with Ranger.
Re: Boundaries by Dhanesh M Kumar	Fayt 141.157.35.222	13-Mar-06/8:36 AM
much better when you know what the theme is.
Re: a comment on Emo Kid by Fayt	Ranger 62.252.32.15	13-Mar-06/8:34 AM
Done. 8 as it made me laugh. And maybe, just maybe, one day I will write a tribute to the emo scene.

A fair point - there is a purpose to the word choice there. First (and least of all) it's in keeping with the fairground 'merry-go-round' theme. Second, it's one of the reactions you'd tend to get from ride attendants to children who've suddenly decided they don't like the ride they're on. And thirdly it attempts to encapsulate the sort of attitude of people who gang up on individuals for kicks (no pun intended); they quite clearly can't understand why it's distressing for the individual being pushed around (teacup twirl). With any luck, that explanation will make things a bit clearer. Personally I despise the theme in this, but as a poem I think it works quite well.

awkward piece, i dont think it comes together yet, but then again it is not complete; 6 for now, but im looking forward to more.
Re: Desolation by Beyond_Dreams	Fayt 141.157.35.222	13-Mar-06/8:23 AM
I like it alot and the cliches dont bother me. This is probably because i can relate personally to the poem. good work.

Well done with a difficult form. It's not entirely fair to point out story glitches in a vil, but indulge me. The girl begins crying, destraught. Then, in verse 3, she is merry. From there on, it flows well.

Actually, having thought about the context, I really like the last two lines of stanza 2.

Please see my explanations
Re: a comment on Boundaries by Dhanesh M Kumar	Ranger 62.252.32.15	13-Mar-06/8:15 AM
Makes more sense now, although I still stick by what I said about the grammar. 'Crackle the chains' is certainly clearer with the interpretation, as is 'Staggering changeling'. Decent theme.
Re: We Do Not Write About by faithmairee	Dovina 67.72.98.83	13-Mar-06/8:10 AM
I think it would be stronger using "I" instead of "we." Some people do write of what they don't know. To say that you do not, is really the only thing you can say.

The theme in this poem is about freedom. I wrote this when I saw a mother trying to control her child who was screaming at the top of it’s voice as his mother stopped him from coming out of a room.

Pretty cool, the title makes it sound as though she's from halfway across the world. Do you know her in reality, or just over the net?

I haven't seen The Island. Thanks.
Re: Boundaries by Dhanesh M Kumar	Dovina 67.72.98.83	13-Mar-06/8:01 AM
I don't get the first verse. The second verse picks up some catchy phrases and rhythm. Only the last two lines geve some clue on what you might be saying.
