-=Dark_Angel=- does not have an alter ego. In fact, some might say he has quite the reverse...

Yeah, Doylum. Blah blah blah blah serve to flaunt your amateur status. Checkmate, I believe.

I don't know what this is about, but it's the best incredibly violent poeme I've ever seen.
Re: Daughter by pkdrunner	15-Aug-02/7:51 PM
I don't get it. Are the words willing, or is he? In any case, any poeme about a wedding should feature the word 'JESU' written in asterisks 70 feet high. This poeme does not. Therefore I can give you no higher than a 2. However, since I have given up voting, I won't.

All the poetry I have ever read has "done" next to nothing for me. Perhaps some poetry will at some point in the future. But there is no point in me trying to create poetry in a different style when I have nothing appealing to go on. I am the enforcer of verbal justice. My voice is strong and commanding. You know very little. -=Jesu=- is on my side. Poo. Whatever.

N't.
Re: Kiss Me by Butterflies	15-Aug-02/7:10 PM
Yeah... That's actually total bollocks, isn't it? And even if it's true, the thing about poetry.com is they have three rules: 1) Publish anything 2) Publish everything 3) Publish it as fast as you fucking can. So it really wouldn't be too surprising or interesting. What *is* interested is where exactly this poeme is. Is it this one or a different one? Not because I doubt you, because I would never dare doubt the word of such a clearly talented poete, but, for example, what's your name? Poetry.com doesn't let you search by poem title. Where's the list of poemes for that book? Etc. You don't seem to be in the list of poets by region when I click on Australia. That's funny.

It's your love-in. Do whatever the fuck you want. But I hope you don't expect a gentleman like me to join your vulgar peasant frolickry.
Re: A Geisha's Burlesque~Aforethought! by Bachus	15-Aug-02/6:29 PM
"-=Jesu=- was on his way up to poemeranker, with -=Dark_Angel=- leading the way, and the naughty cohorts were astonished, while those who followed were afraid. Again -=Jesu=- took the Twelve aside and told them what was going to happen to him. "We are going up to poemeranker," he said, "and -=Dark_Angel=- will be betrayed to the mature poetes and masters of irony. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to Bachus, who will mock him and spit on him, flog him and kill him. Three days later he will rise." I offer these humble words only to warn you, Bachus. Save yourself. Save yourself before it's too late!
Re: A Geisha's Burlesque~Aforethought! by Bachus	15-Aug-02/6:24 PM
Do you hear that, Scooby? Bachus is mocking us! I think Jesu will have something to say about that...
Re: love song by <~>	15-Aug-02/6:20 PM
I just re-read my poeme and realised it could easily be interpreted as mocking you/your poeme. It wasn't meant that way. It was meant to be only self-referential. I thought this poeme was qvite good, and cello-shaped. O Jesu what have I done...
Re: Kiss Me by Butterflies	15-Aug-02/6:12 PM
Yes...clearly 'cohort' implies a group somewhere. But why does that mean that -=Dark_Angel=- couldn't be a cohort? Is -=Dark_Angel=- not part of a group? Does he not bleed? Where is your sense of compassion, man? Your sense of humility?! I swear to God, as soon as I get out of here I'm setting up a little shop, selling Shoe-hornes for all who require aid in dressing.
Re: love song by <~>	15-Aug-02/6:10 PM
I wasn't implying that you are a 'mature poet'. I was being ironic in suggesting that 'Dickensian' was mature, when, in fact, it clearly is not mature. And what's all this about 'breaking it up'? I've got the odd extra space here and there to make things fit, and there's a natural gap at the bottom where the testicles live, but surely that's all fine and dandy?
Re: Kiss Me by Butterflies	15-Aug-02/6:01 PM
Are you implying that -=Dark_Angel=- is a 'cohort', and moreover that he would criticise such a beautiful, sensual poeme such as this? On the contrary, Sir! This poeme is splendid indeede! I will give a line by line account of why I strongly believe that this is the finest love poeme ever written. Uh-um. Line 1: Bitter love and separation. The two crucial elements to a love poem with any dramatic and emotional tension. 2. Tentative release and the beginning of acceptance and healing. This is the next step, and allows the reader a small sandbar of hope after the crushing wave of sorrow in line 1. Line 3: The writer tries to rationalise the tersity of the breakup, even though he/she wishes it would go on for longer deep in his/her heart. Line 4: Further rationalisation, using a beautiful metaphor - string, heartstrings - I do believe this is my favourite love poem metaphor. A true classic. Line 5: Oh fuck it I can't be arsed. This is the most awful load of complete arse-cake I've ever read. You dunce, Songstar. This is terrible. It's so cliched Skeletor could shake his fist at it and curse and it wouldn't even blink. It's pointless, obvious, generic, meaningless, dull, badly written, frustrating, ill-thought-out, self-indulgent and, above all, it's exactly the sort of poeme that I'd expect someone who's had the most generic breakup ever to write. I'm going to stop commenting now for fear that I say something I will regret.

If you don't know what l33t means then you definitely aren't l33t. I am though.
Re: Love by skaterdude396	15-Aug-02/5:23 PM
This is the most original poeme I have ever read. The title is AMAZING. "Your eyes are like the ocean"... great line. "The way you walk / The way you talk"... great use of 'walk' to rhyme with 'talk'!!! Great work skaterdude396! Excellent, mate! Not only are you a way cool, l33t skate dude, you also have time for feelings! Because you know, feelings are important too, aren't they?
