How can you be offended by nonsense?

2. I turned down the offering of His hand long ago and I cannot find it in myself to look past the contradictions of the Bible to think that something written by men could save my life. If a man were to offer a book as long as a single book of the Bible he would be called a nut, not a prophet. I feel the same way about both Testaments. If I'm wrong I'll burn in Hell but I have a feeling the rest of you would be disappointed if there were anyway for your brain/mind/soul/Geist/whatever to register the fact that you got duped after you die. 3. It's about time you notice that the stanza I refered to is in fact metaphor free. 4. The question was "How?" not "Is it possible?" You did not provide an answer. You can call it what you will but I'm tired of responding to you.

I wasn't saying that gay people can't have narrow minds. Rather I was saing that I haven't heard one used as a cause of the other. As for what you call a favor, I don't think so. I cannot beleive that it needed to be said. I see it rather as the muddling thoughts with a superiority complex. The fun thing about superiority complexes is that they actually steam from feelings of inferiority. It may very well be raining in Baltimore. I don't know because I live in the Midwest. My best wishes to Babbit.

2. No, a savior saves something. Take away the act of saving and there is no savior. 3. Is that in the 4th stanza? 4. In the context of the poem it's not likely. Besides it's a question. Questions have answeres. You're assuming the answer is "I can't." I write poems. I put them on a site called poemranker. Is it poemeranker? Nope. You know why? Because it's a fucking poem. Get over yourself or you remain an ass.
Re: a comment on Savior Self by OneFingerAnswer	2-Feb-03/10:24 PM
2. How is he the savior? If I don't accept it I'm not saved. If there's no sving to be done there is no savior. 3. That's not in the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th... that is what you said. 4. Would you want financial advise from a bum? I wouldn't and in the same way I wouldn't want some one with trouble being happy to try and help me be happy. Okay, I'll use complete senteces. The word is "poem." There is no "e" at the end. Get it now? If you're going to try to be a smartass make sure you get the smart part down first. Otherwise you simply become an ass.

Narrow minds associated with homosexuality. There's a new one. Anyway I don't have a narrow mind when it comes to poetry but zero's "I Am a Snob, or, 'A Definition'" was prose plain and simple.
Re: a comment on Savior Self by OneFingerAnswer	2-Feb-03/7:59 PM
1. Uh oh a typo. God save us all. 2. Jesus is the savior only if you accept the Teachings of Chrisianity. I'm pretty sure he fell once or twice.I mean he was always walking everywhere on dirt roads. I'm sure he causght his foot on a rock or something. 3. When people who are as thin as me get excited or upset they feel their heart beating both on their back and on their ribs. The 4th stanza wasn't even metaphor. It's about as straight foreward as it gets. 4. Are you saying that one can't save him or herself? Poem. No e. Are you related to VP Dan?

Nice response. I left myself wide open for that one.
Re: I Am a Snob, or, 'A Definition' by JakeBike	1-Feb-03/3:41 PM
I believe I'd rather read a hundred mind numbingly cliche poems about love than one peice of prose presented as a poem. Before you start defining what diffferent styles of poems are perhaps you should learn what a poem is in the general sense.
Re: Kaolin Fire is SHIT by poemwanker	1-Feb-03/3:16 PM
I never get people who go to a site just to complain that they don't like it. I'm thinking that if you don't like something you should avoid it.

I agree. Good idea but the poem's not quite right.
Re: Fuck the system by which we live by Lucifer	13-Jan-03/1:53 PM
I guess I have no sense of humor cause I didn't find these forced rhymes and middle school jokes combined in a mess of bad poetry funny. Oh well. By the way if you're going to say fuck then just say it.

Line 19, "and my keep my dreams within it"... is that supposed to read, "and keep my dreams within it" ? 9.

With all those big words, I was going to ask "Did someone find a dictionary?" but then I noticed they aren't used right or even all spelled right. (Tuberculosis)

god'swife your welcome and I thank you too. As for the bees, now that I know their source they make perfect sense and I thought discussion of them was as dead as they are. Back to people being able to call art/poetry good or bad, An individual can say that a piece of work is bad in their eyes but they cannot tell me how it looks through my eyes. If many people like it then maybe the artist/poet did something right or maybe they just played puppet to the audience and wrote something simple for the simple minds. If no one likes it maybe they simply need to die before any credit can be given for their greatness or maybe they just suck. Either way the former will get money and fame (or maybe just a bunch of 10's) and the latter will starve or find a day job. The audiance maybe right or wrong but in the end they are still the jury.
