Fear (Free verse) by Phalkon
i lay awake in bed my heart is pounding painfully a million thoughts run through my head my fears begin to forte i then begin to sweat the second hand ticks slowly and i am without rest the noise outside my door taps most menacingly i now begin to wonder if i'll see the light of day the door creaks open slowly a beam lights up my room a fear i've never known before enters through the door my teeth begin to chatter uncontrollably now only do i realize fear has control of me!

What do you mean by "my fears begin to forte"?

The most logical explanation I can come up with is that you're using some kind of obsolete olden verb meaning "to builde a [sofa cushion] fortresse." Is this the case?

so you need to be whiny to prove a point?... who really cares?... i wrote it, so why don't you shut the hell up?

In addition to writing it, as you say, did you also invent your own language system, undecipherable to most, which you've shared with only your closest friends (i.e., Blindpoetry)? No? You meant for this poem to make sense in English? Then you fail.

At any rate, this conversation was innocent enough until you claimed I hadn't passed the fourth grade three comment-deletions ago. Now I trust you know who is the spanker and who's the spanked? Good. You may delete this comment at your leisure. After this, if you ever delete another of my comments I'll break your legs, punk. Okay? Thanks.

HAHAHAHAHA... omg, you are so funny!

A: interesting how you get your kicks off of "trying" to make yourself seem better than others, even though you obviously are lacking in many personal fields

B: you're the only person who repeatedly tries to find fault with me

C: why haven't you posted anything bad about my newest poem "what's the point?" or does it leave you without possible "witty retort"?

D: i seriously didn't think you'd take it that hard when i said you didn't pass the 4th grade... maybe it just took you more than one try... but at any rate, i'm sorry i hurt your feelings

A: I'm not "trying" to make myself seem better than you; I *know* I am. Just take a look at these glowing testimonials.

"zodiac is totally ace" - Steve in Nebraska

"Thar ain't none in these parts what shoots straighter and drinks harder'n that ol' dodger zodiac" - Hank in Montana

"You're beautiful. You'll be a star" - Simon Cowell

"You have the aura of election upon you" - Harold Bloom

And I have many, many more. As far as "you obviously are lacking in many personal fields" goes, please explain.

B: I'm apparently the only one who cares. *glows beatifically*

C: What, indeed, would be the point? At any rate, you haven't posted anything on anyone's poems except your own and one each of dmzoacan's and Blindpoetry's. Why don't you give it a shot?

D: You didn't hurt my feelings, you dimwit. That's not even close to what I said.

E: Thanks.

I lie awake and brood
In my bedchamber, while nude.

I lie alone and reflect,
While fully or semi erect.
