Ah, a poem about poems, not a bad topic to choose. As always, the flow for it is great and the message behind it is great as well.

Well HELLO Crystal! 8>

Didja MISS me?! xD

I know I was beginning to miss myself (my poetic self), damnable studies! lol


Anyhoo, your comment is much appreciated. I find the topic to be rather interesting as well; I totally had that last line written out before the rest of the poem was! :U

I loves me a good poetic message! :3

You're welcome and yeah, I did miss ya lol.

ahh.. you suck..

i have poetry about poetry i was gonna post...

anyway nice....really i mean it that's awesome

do you actually plan all of your poems and take more then about 2 hours to produce?

mine seems less complex and more suckish nevertheless i have about 4 or five i need to type and post.....

remember the park parable? when riddle left i said to you how we are but people in a public park and we are free to roam? remember? no? well i poetized it and it's pretty alright... be sure to check it out when i get around to typing it up

Hehe, well, I do tend to contribute a lot of time to my work, and I usually have a pretty good idea of what I want to say and how. ^^

I'm VERY nit-picky with my word choice, especially when trying to come up with a nice consistent rhyme, so that's where most of my time is taken up. 8U


That aside, I most certainly DO remember that park parable idea of yours. I hope to run into it when I plow through my 400+ FA subs; I haven't been able to filter through them because of the sight slow downs. x3

awesome! loved the rhyme and rhythm, and the subject made it cool! ^^

Rhyme and rhythm is what I DO! 8u

And concept is EVERYTHING, my dear Ardereluna! \(^o^)/

Thanks for the comment! ;3

You reminded me a tad of Blake:

"A truth that's told with bad intent
Beats all the lies you can invent."

But I think he drew the connection in a rather more negative way than you did.

Anyway, I do find it exciting when a poem shows its independence, and I like the conceptual dance performed here. Bravo.

I reminded you of William Blake, eh? (o.o)

That, good sir, I will take as a compliment! ^^

It really is a MARVELOUS quote; but, yes, I did indeed mean it in a more positive light! ;D

Your comment is most appreciated; I like your use of "conceptual dance." If it hasn't shown yet, I'm an archaically formatted romanticist; my professors simply can't STAND my work, as it sounds rather dated. =/

Still, I love it when a poem sings with decorative fervor. =U

I do hope to write more soon! \(^o^)/

You just radiate your glory in everything you ever create, don't you?

I disagree with a few of your points, however. I do feel poetry can be taught; at least in regard to forms, rhythm, rhyme, metaphor, and simile. While one cannot inspire, per say, someone to create a poem, they can give them to tools with which to create one.

Hehe, but of COURSE, dear Scier! :3

I wrote that line FULLY aware of the tools one can instill in an upstarting poet; however, poetry needs more than form and implemented techniques, which are indeed teachable. =D

Your use of "at least" is all I need to strengthen my belief that the essence of poetry is what can't be clearly defined. ^^

I appreciate the kind words, my friend. 8>

Wonderful, as always! I love the rhythm, and the approach to the subject.

Hehe, THANKS! ;3

I'm happy with the approach as well; I always try to take creative concept into account! ^^

ALSO, I haven't seen ya yet on MSN; I'm on pretty often--we really should chat sometime! =D
