Site isn't working for me. Don't know why.

It isn't for me either. That's strange. Here is the poem, at any rate:

United we stand, divided - we fell
when the vase hit the wall, we were destined for hell,
abuse of power, tears and pain
Luster had faded, we were broken again,
The words we had said, bitter as salt
(neither conceded, both were at fault.)

whoa...i'm not really one for poetry, but thats really good
its crazy how you got it to rhyme and stay on topic...i can never get very far with poetry, i either have problems opening up or keeping the flow.
but 'tis good...i dont really know what else to say, so i'll end with one of my friends poems. he wrote it on the back of his picture, and gave it to this "lady" he was gonna ask out. so great

today i meet someone kindharted and tru,
i met someone beautiful
that someone was u

it was all shitty-lookin and not straight, and yes all those spellings errors were on purpose...hehehehe

Hey awesome. Confusing but I've never been much for poems. So I guess since I like it, people who appreciate it could love it.

Those poems are really good. And there's a lot of them. 72, I better get cracking.

Yeah really good.

I really enjoyed the poem you wrote, RaiRai. The rhyme fit in beautifully without detracting via cheesiness (as rhymes so often do). And it made sense to me. I always like reading serious poetry that uses rhyme and uses it well (mainly because I'm inept at doing so).

RaiRai 12-01-2003 04:58 PM

Well, basically it was only supposed to be 5 lines long. I could start a thread in the same idea as the one I was using. Someone picks 5 random words and you use them in a poem. The last line is to be read as an afterthought. It was required to keep the rhyme scheme. ^^;

I think I managed to keep the theme up rather well, which is why I was more proud of this one than the other 5 liners I've written. I'm glad most of you enjoy it. ^^;
