ya know dark, I agree with you on alot of that, I may be a mediocre poet but i, like yourself didnt write anything before I found this site. I needed a way to get stuff out, I viewed poetry like an outlet of sorts. But ive found that poetry is so much more than that now. I guess one of the reasons I got so mad was becuase recently my friend and uncle died at the same time, I had no way of saying how I felt so I posted some mindless words and thought people would relate, but after I came back from the funeral that night I checked the site and the first comments were "Move the F*ck on with your life" "this is the worst poem I have ever heard" I was so freeking mad, but how did they know what was going on, how could I expect people to care. I cant, people live and die all the time I cant expect everyone to sympathize. If this sounds like im being sarcastic, im not. And when I said "give people respect" I just meant not to be so hard, you never know whats going on in peoples lives, but then again who cares, who cares that you have problems, who cares if their about to commit suicide or about to shoot up their school. The point is people need to care, people get pushed to the edge by guys like yourself, you know your good at poetry and you make sure that everyone knows it. people like myself wont let you stop me. from now on ill take the comments and the abuse cause i dont "think" I have potential, I KNOW it and ill keep trying and ill keep getting better. And its all because of you, because you "know" ill fail, im determined not to.

"The only necessary thing for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing" It is our duty to take out tyranny and evil though out the world, if you were an Iraqi would you want the U.S. to mind their own business. You were born free to do whatever you want, and that is something that everyone should have. (oh and ranger, the reason we want their oil is so we wont have to rely on them, he could raise it to any price he wants, and that means that we would have to give him a lot of money, which means more bio weapons, which means more dead Americans and Iraqis) I don?t know about the rest of you wimps but I stand behind my country and my president.

Nice flow, but I dont understand the "semen in my hands" are you implying that whoever this is talking about is lonely? 8

Re: Knowing love by mckenzie |

It was the special sound of his voice.
Or the gleam in his eyes.
Wait, what if it was the way he said You'r name that unmasked his disguise.
I'm not certain,
but whatever the cause, my mind still questions
is this love?
I heard my body scream as his hands touched my face
I felt my knees weaken as he slowly kissed me
But these moments do not campare to when we laid
eye to eye in the bed we had shared
and knowing his thoughts as he stared
That was the look in his eyes
I will never be the same
With him by my side
And in that one brief moment,
In that space of time
When all else stood still
i met love...
(Your poem was good but it had too many excess words that slowed the pace and flow. The fewer words in most cases will better support your meaning and will keep peoples attention.) 5

I like how you spaced the lines to make them seem opposite, what would have been cooler is if you had made this poem as an argument with yourself and had each line opposing the one before. I still like it though, 8

Sadly I must side with D.A., while I might not be the best speller or an excellent grammar student, I know how important grammar and spelling can be to just about everything you will try to accomplish in life.
*If you can't spell people will never take you seriously, trust me it happens to me all the time.
*Not understanding basic grammar will effect how you write and speak.
*Do you ever finish reading a poem that has tons of grammatical errors? I don't, Because it shows that what they posted was something not very well thought out. They did not take the time to correct it, or improve on it, all they have is a foundation of an idea. I guarantee you that if they went over this poem a couple times it would be significantly better. While I do like this poem, like all I see room for improvement. 7

Kinda reminds me of a song I know,
One to another
Do you remember me?
I feel so small
Well are you list'in to me
So temporary
The things that I have seen
I ran so far
Will you take me back again
Entertaining angels
By the light of my TV screen
24-7 you wait for me
Entertaining angels
By the time I fall to my knees
Host of heaven, sing over me
One to another
The feelings in between
I won't let go
Of all you taught me - alright
Close as a brother
The way we used to be
I'll hold my breath
And I'll wait for you to breath
Entertaining angels
By the light of my TV screen
24-7 you wait for me
Entertaining angels
While the night becomes history
Host of heaven, sing over me
Entertaining angels
By the light of my TV screen
24-7 you wait for me
Entertaining angels
By the time I fall to my knees
Host of heaven, sing over me
Entertaining angels
By the light of my TV screen
24-7 you wait for me
Entertaining angels
While the night becomes history
Host of heaven, sing over me

This has got to be one of the worst poems I have ever read. While I agree, I still think you could have gotten your point across differently.

I felt this way alot until I got off my butt and started to do somthing with my life, I had no motivation or want to do anything. This girl ran my life and as soon as she was gone there was nothing. I couldnt take it anymore, I just walked out my front door and walked 2 miles and then came home started playing bass and guitar, made new friends and went paintballing and camping every month. The first step is your front door. I dont know if you wrote this poem but if anyone can relate to this poem, then this is my ten cents.

Re: Attention! - To the Wondering Soul by darkhelmet10 |

I disagree. This world is full of evil, the day you are born you are inclined to do the wrong thing. But thats only true if you believe in absolutes. So many people these days see only grey, they dont believe in right and wrong, and the truth is the more time goes by the more that dark creeps up on us soon the so-called grey will be blackened and well be asking what went wrong. This is why our troops are over there right now, to put an end to evil. While some may say that the motivation is solely greed I disagree(look at my comment on the poem W.A.R.) While none are perfect, the difference is the will to be perfect which seperates us from the rest of the world, we as a nation were born upon the principles and morals of Christianity. And as time goes by we reject it and shove it as far back as possible claiming to be our own Gods, claiming to know all that is important. If we continue to shun wisdom in this country it will be us burning our books in the streets.
