The Waiting Room (Free Verse) by -=Dark_Angel=-
Hello evil muslim
Come in and take a seat
Enjoy a cup of coffee
Relax; put up your feet
I'll just bring up your file
To see if thou art just;
You don't believe in Jesus!?
But the Bible says you must!
You shan't be going to Heaven
Instead you'll rot in Hell
As a vile non-believer
We'll break your wicked spell!
You'll never taste the splendour
Of a Pure and Perfect Place
Instead you'll watch your entrails
Landing splat upon your face
You won't be very happy
When we jump on your best friend
Or make you drive that scooter
Down a road that has no end
We'll open up your diary
And insert a scrambled egg
Then we'll make you give a sermon
With it trickling down your leg
And just in from Head Office
Our request has been approved!
To have your nostrils fisted
And your bollocks both removed
I hope you'll learn your lesson
As well as have a lovely stay
Then maybe next time you will listen
To what the Bible has to say.

It certainly is an ace poeme. I really like the use of "dying" to rhyme with "crying"! But hey I have a question about Christ.
If lots of people pray for something, is Jesu more likely to answer the prayer than if only one person prays?
Thanks!

Your poetry is tediously verbose because you overuse the dictionary and, to make matters worse, you happen to be the pretentious sort so you end up choosing words like "mellifluous" and phrases like "souls theatre". Your idea of what constitutes poetical wonderment is pretty much anything containing obscure language fused with line breaks and frequent refrences to spirits, messiahs, edens, cherubs, greek gods, dreamscapes, marble statues, melancholy, the whispering wind, xanthous brick roads, phantoms, reflections and musings.
You're absolutely right.
But what you lack is the uncompromisingly austere upbringing that was my priveledge. I am adept in my application of such words and phrases as mellifluous, xanthous, ruminate, maleficence, opprobrium, and "that would be an ecumenical matter", because they are not strangers to my daily vocabulary. You, on the other hand, wield the dictionary in much the same way a disabled wields an AK47 - as a strange, heavy object thrust into your hands by people who should have known better.

Then why don't you write a little webpage on your own computer called don-quixotepoemranker which only you get to vote and comment on, rather than posting your self-indulgent twaddle on a PUBLIC POETRY FORUM?

Extraordinarily pretentious title, even by your dictionary-obsessed standards. Nevertheless, great use of "delivered via the ear to be absorbed by my brain" as a beautifully concise synonym for "hearing something".

From your WRITING, it is my judgement that YOU cannot write and are probably thick.

Do you really know Rufus Wainwright? I saw him once on "Later with Jools Holland" on BBC 2. Playing "Foolish Love". Quite good.

Emotions are important, aren't they? If the youth of today had to have a single role model, to the exclusion of all others, who would you choose out of Mother Teresa, Rolf Harris, The Queen Mother, Mother Teresa II, or Mother Teresa with an assistant?

A good effort but it doesn't rhyme very well. Keep working at it, though! You'll get there!

you should be. If you genuinely cannot see how forced and stupid your poeme sounds as a direct result of injudicious use of a dictionary, then there is no hope for you. You wanna hit the big leagues and play hardball with the cool-cats and hipsters like me, you gotta be sharp and classy like me. Learn the moves kid. Because ten years from now you'll thank me for it, and then you'll know it takes more than a cursory rumination upon the frozen image of opprobrium to make it in this business.
Forget it kid - it's Chinatown.

No. That isn't "one of the points of poetry". Here is a poeme I like:
http://www.poets.org/poems/poems.cfm?45442B7C000C07060171
And here is what your version would look like:
http://agentprawne.illfuckinghostit.com/SupremeDreamer.htm
Now do you see?
And besides: what's all this guff about me correcting you all the time? As far as I recall, the only time I've done that was for your American Eden poeme, in which you had incorrectly used the word "its" ten times. I may have corrected the odd word elsewhere, but I'm hardly jumping on every syntactical error I find just to make me look smart. I already look smart. And judging by the way you write most of the time, it's obvious you don't really bother with things like spelling or grammar or the difference between "your" and "you're". You might just be ignorant, but you probably just can't be arsed. So I don't bother pointing it out. I only point out errors when I feel it undermimes the author's credibility and/or confidence. I do it because I'm good at it, and I'm genuinely interested in people. And because it makes me feel big.

Do you know what this poeme sounds like to me? It sounds like you thought about "weeping willows", and whenever you couldn't think of a word, or you could think of a word but wanted a better word meaning something similar, you looked in a dictionary or thesaurus to try and find the most sophisticated word you could, and then used that instead. The result is the slantiest pile of pretentious "you cause me to ruminate" verse I have ever seen. What a mess. Like Dante meets bosh in a crack lounge. I would urge anyone reading the words: ruminate, lachrymose, enshrouding, legion, decrepit or opprobrium, to picture the 17 year old SupremeDreamer earnestly leafing through the dictionary in search of said word, with an uncompromisingly learned expression on his bloated face. As far as I can see, if you are barely literate then your only chance to hit the big leagues as writer is to become a ballsy Y2K slam-street poete. Personally, I prefer a fusion of flash-dance with MC Hammer shit.

This has to be one of the most sickening comments I have ever read on poemeranker. I have been trying for months to parody this sort of attitude in my comments. Alas my endless battles to obtain some kind of stupid "maturity award" I invented, combined with the hours spent prattling on about how special I think I am and how immature everyone else is, has left me hanging wistfully in the breeze like an old man's nappy. If indeed you are joking, then I feel I must congratulate you on your devastatingly accurate portrayal of a top-notch dullard. Unfortunately, you aren't joking. You're a total fucking moron.
Anyone who prances around the place like a total arse, constantly bragging about having "been around the block", and smuggly felching out these bum-crushingly spasticated comments, with their "oh so telling" put-downs "casually" interspersed with vomit-inducing "you'll be ok" banter, as if you're some sort of amazing "been around the block" father-figure, but at the same time so desperately aloof that you sort of float around the place in a giant kleptomasturbatory entrepoid shaped like The Fonz, has to be one of the worst stains ever to have been defecated on this utter toilet of a website.
