    A poem for a friend a poet in the truest sense of the word comments/critiques.?

    He seems to want to hide himself behind every reveal he wants to speak from the heart and backpedals his wheel. He's brought down fire at times but picks it up with oven mitts makes arrid lunar landscapes out of muse's flaming pits. At last his voice eclipses in a self-protecting haze when...

    Talent will out. Is this a good poem?

    When life becomes a vale of tears I choke down the bitterness of years Every moment my anguish chars that they give me Naes when I want Yars I fear I've planted too many seeds of poetry that turned into weeds that turn to hydras when fully grown and have a stink that's all their own I chuck the...

    Is one of the greatest errors in the history of philosophy considering

    Modern philosophy leaves those answers unattended. I don't think venerating mathematics has caused all that much harm, if any.

    What is the joy of creating a new avatar to try to escape your reputation as a poet?

    My friends are all playing avatar games. It seems such a fraud to me to just create an almost identical avatar and try to escape your past. I want to be loved so much I am going to run away from my own identity. Does that make better poets? I mean don't get me wrong, I am uglier in real life...

    Let's discuss reality!?

    I prefer the story of the Chinese Mandarin, who said "I dreamt I was a butterfly, and when I woke I wasn't sure if I was a man dreaming I was a butterfly or a butterfly dreaming I was a man." As a good Berkelyite, I believe that reality is a communication between God and man and so the nature...

    If The YA poets are Star Wars characters who is who?

    I vote Buk for Lando Callrissian, Sin as Princess Leia, and Ian as Han Solo. I of course, must be Ben Kenobi. [Thanks Shultzie for the idea. Wanna be a Wookie?] Yes Ian will be very disappointed I didn't make him Vader, but I save the dark side for the trolls and controls. Yahoo is the Death...

    Poetry section and friends...question for you....?

    is this dark, sad or just whining? c/c?

    Your gargoyle reminds me of my dragon (depression) which I will not post here because I don't wish to give Yahoo 50% rights over it. Your dance growing tired is a scary image, knowing you. Thanks.

    All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling" what do you think?

    Oscar Wilde has a way of saying what is true in a manner which is deceptive. What he means is you don't become a great baseball player by "loving" baseball you get there by "practicing" baseball. It doesn't mean sincerity is a bad thing or it is even necessary, but it invests bad writers with a...
