Farewell Song

Member since 2002 · Posted 10 May 2002 · 5 comments

I thought my love a rose A beautiful scent, so sweet I thought my love a rainbow Where all the colors meet I thought my love would never die But it seems I'm always wrong I heard aphrodite cry And heard her farewell song.

Crap. Total crap. Crap. Crap. Complete god damned crap. My Christ this is some of the worst crap I've ever seen crapped. God in Heaven how did you come up with some crap? Serious fucking crap. Crap. How crap is this? Crap. Crap. Really quite crap. And it's crap.

Wasn't this already written? There is one thing to put it into an allusion, but this is down right theft - my love is a red, red rose.

I think this has been judged unfairly. If you're strict on your plagiarism thing, the Waste Land is all stolen, and that's the greatest poem ever.

I think you're right, this is by far not the worst thing on poemranker.
