Philosophy isn't necessarily religion. Your philosophy is religion. That is, it's borrowed from some vague semi-ancientness, exaggerated, and so totally changed to meet your needs it would be unrecognizable to an actual ancient summa. Consider as further proof that you believe your version of summa philosophy is the true one and not one totally changed to meet your needs.
You're sick. If you were a feminist, you'd at least get so-called sensitive men. No vote.
My girl (a dinosaur, but extincter)
Had a thing for toying with my sphincter
Til one day, quite naughtily,
She entered it bodily.
We still talk, though her voice is indistincter.
Also, consider rhymes with her (or 'er), like "binked her", "Colonel Klinked 'er" or "hyperlinked 'er".
A great user of cliches is Thom Yorke of Radiohead. He actually never sings anything that isn't like a tv-movie.
By my definition of faith, you are not expressing faith. You are saying that by your logic and emotions you think . . . Faith is the substance of things not necessarily supported by emotion or logic, simply because somebody says so.
Don't you guys vote anymore on your sex objects?
You might as well use "done did" if you're going to use "did" that way (like you were answering a question). "knobs-a-turning" and "bulbs-a-burning" a case of style juxt-a-posing.
Some good stuff though.
Don't worry Dovina we still think your a sex object.
Poetry ; also the criminal act of forcing words into feelings.
The rest of your comment is incomprehensible.
What gives poetry or any art form feeling is composition.
It is not feeling it is an evoker of feeling.
Rhyme is a poetic device like metaphor or alliteration. All used to help make a lasting impression on the reader.
What does poetry do that prose can't? Poetry can be memorized more easily and tends to be shorter, that's all.
But not religion. That's reserved for deities and Joe Pesci.
Recipe for Religion:
Take 5 parts previous believed things
10 parts exageration
4 parts promise
6 parts fear
Sprinkle a dash of common sense
Mix until resembling a compelling story
and voila
Faith depends on personal preference or devine intervention.
I have faith that the scenario in your comment has never truly taken place in anyone save for those who met God.
I give birth almost every morning during the half-sleep after dream and before reason. Maybe this is not what you mean, doesn't matter.
From "your waterbed sucked me in" on it's good.
stoicism is so similar to apathy that the opening lines seem trivial.
Vile existance and survival are not similar, making the next few lines wonderment.
"Steadfast mistaken for diffidence" is a good line.
The last line seems to change the subject.
It all depends on faith. We can take the word of anyone, and if that word is taken without apprehension from inputs received through our five senses and from logic, then it's an act of faith.
Yeah, I think dashes would be better.
well...
you're not so thick, you almost get it.
so i'm not doing a shit job, but i am writing from the perspecitve of one who does a shit job
and it's not so much the amount of money in the poem, but what is being done with it that is important.
maybe you should deepen your definition of deeper.
