Pretty true... I fear too far in the future though >.<

>.< I'll probably be the person calling 15 years in advance to get a reservation...

You should never fear the future. In fact if you do change will you even change that much if at all?

Dunno... I've changed a lot since I was little... and I've seen people change yet more...

It's just human nature. You change the most from adolecence into adulthood.

Some people change after that too

(Brb, going to grandparents)

@ Jethren - One thing though is that not all poems, nor free verse poems have a rhythm involved. Rhythm is just an additive to make the poem, generally a little more playful or flow better. I never understand when people say that if it doesn't rhyme it's not poetry...:headdesk: (Not saying you did... but that's what came to mind from what you said - I tend to interpret people wrong sometimes)

I don't usually like giving feedback either... because as I love harsh feedback (that's useful) I also tend to give it, but as most people will not take harsh comments well, I only do so when asked.

Well, I don't like rhyming so much really. I do use it (as you've seen), but it feels like a crutch. What I meant has more to do with sentence structure...syllables and pauses. When a poem has a "beat" to it, it makes more of an impact. Actually, playing with the tempo of poems is one of my preferred forms.

Up and down on padded feet.
Marching now the cat parade.
Silent silent treading light.
Whispers softly through the town.
Padded paws and whiskers long.
Hunters traveling tonight.
In bright coats,
With feline song.

I shall await your return then.

@ Jethren - true... it is kind of a cheat... though some poems go well with it...
like for example a halloween poem with rhythm gives the morbid setting a playful tone... which... >.>" makes them really creepy...

@ Aco - Hello~!

Did you just change your avi's sex? How was it at your grandparents'?

Do you like my rhythm poem, by the by? =3 Meow!

^^ Yeah I like it... it's about kitties?

@ Aco - Yeah, felt like switching it up a little =)
Was fun... got a computer =3

Nother hand me down ^^

What do you feel like chatting about tonight?

Hmm... i dunno... =3 you go any ideas?

Right now I'm watching Penn and Teller's Bullsh*t on YouTube. Ever watch that show?

Yep. Hunting kitties! ='3

Funny. My computer is a hand me down too. Then again, it's usually easier to get one used than new. Especially on a student's budget. Actually...for mine I helped a friend fix his house. How'd you get yours, if I may ask?

@ Aco - Nope... not really a tv person ^^"

@ Jethren - My grandpa got a new one XD was gonna throw the oold one away so I offered to take it

Have any interesting tales to tell?

Penn and Teller? I love those guys!
(Man...I'm out of the loop by a few posts every time here. Pardon my third-wheel-ness.)

No worries =) we all post out of sync at times

Well, I'd rather be out of sync than be N*Sync. (Feel free to groan.)

lol... ^^" they're a band aren't they? (not a music person)

A boy band. Once fawned over by teen girls, but now the butt of many jokes about homosexuality. They did actually have a few good songs, which will, I have no doubt, be forgotten by music history.
