I can understand why people wouldn't like it in that it is ... well, depressing, really. And if maybe they were in a good mood it would force their mentality to be on something not so.. good. I don't not like it. I wouldn't put a frame on it and put it on my wall, but I appreciate that it is very real. Many people have felt something similar to this in their life, and yes, for some it is stronger than others. And for some it stays longer, because it cuts so deep. I know that after a few breakups, I wrote really emo poems, but you know what? It helped me see how I felt, and I think it is good to acknowledge where you are at. So kudos to you. I don't know how long ago you wrote this, and how much of a grudge you have held onto, but irregardless, the portrayal of emotions in this poem flows very well. I like where you moved to the next lines. I mean, it is definitely a different way to separate it than most others would do, but it leaves more room to us to have insight and pause to think. How many other poems have you written like this?

CosmicFoxKitty 07-13-2010 07:45 AM

I've written poems a lot... Sestina's are by far my favorite I think... Hiku's are really fun too :) I know it's kind of weird for some because a few of my poems I wasn't even thinking. One I wrote watching a girl that was trying to get a guys attention... she loved him you could tell... it's strange.. I'm the same way with my art... thank you though :)

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 08:34 AM

Ah yeah, I get what you are saying about art. (: I do that sometimes with poems but they seem to take a tad bit more focus lol. At least in my experiences.
And did you mean a haiku? Like 5/7/5? I have never heard of a Sestina before.

CosmicFoxKitty 07-13-2010 08:38 AM

Sestina is weird... hold on let me get the pattern ^^; I forget but you might get confused idk...

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 09:03 AM

Alright, awesome :3 I look forward to trying one.

CosmicFoxKitty 07-13-2010 04:39 PM

The same set of six words ends the lines of each of the six-line stanzas, but in a different order each time; if we number the first stanza's lines 123456, then the words ending the second stanza's lines appear in the order 615243, then 364125, then 532614, then 451362, and finally 246531

*wanders on in*

Hai thar :)

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 10:02 PM

Venom- Hello :3

DeadAngel- Ok thank you ^.^ That.. sounds.. difficult XD But it is cool you have managed to make so many. I mean, I don't know how many but you said you love them and you write poems a lot so ya XD

hmmm poem poem XD

Softly wander past the trees
The night so fresh, in vigor
Warmth of chills you longed for so,
The sparrow falls to wither
You can't let go, you won't, not now;
The truth is clinging on
The air, so crisp, your lungs are shocked
To hear the forest's winter song.
But come today, yes, join the crows
A generation ended
Just singing of their broken dreams
With hearts still untended
The Mayor never listened,
No, he never heard their cries
To stop construction at the door,
The storms with all their lies.
Now sparrows sit, in friendly nature
Never to know a life so pure
As the rabbits jumping past them
Down the rabbit hole.

Vexatious~Venom 07-13-2010 10:05 PM

Hey :)

How're you?

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 10:09 PM

I'm okay. My future mother in law is putting my fiance to 4 hours of work o-o" but the weather is nice at least. I should eat lol. xD uhmmm ya hbu? XDD

Vexatious~Venom 07-13-2010 10:14 PM

That sucks.

Ooh, whatchya making? I smell something cooking just now, it smells awful yummy whatever it is :drool: (edit: after reading that it sounds like I smell what you're making. I would just like to clarify: no, I am not a creepy stalker outside your house xD)

I'm doing good thanks. I'm just doing a bit of the ol' arting just now. I should probably get started on my entry for the event writing contest though xD

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 10:22 PM

Yeah, she definitely fits the stereotype. But we are moving to Japan in the next 5-6 years, so no worries there. XD
Lol.... I really have no idea where that came from about cooking. I would love to be cooking tonkatsu and sweet dumplings right now. But I don't currently have all the ingredients. xB
Ooh, can I see your art? :3 I am an artist too. And also a writer like you too XDD

Vexatious~Venom 07-13-2010 10:28 PM

My aunt's mother in law is like that xD

Wow, I would love to live somewhere like Japan, just the whole experience of it all would be brilliant I think. Though at the moment I can't really see myself living anywhere else but Scotland.

Sounds good. I had prok stir fry for dinner. It was allright I suppose, but it went a little watery when I was re-heating it. I should really just eat with everyone else, it isn't the first time a good meal has been killed xD

Yeah sure.

^that is the sort of work I do. I normally do celebrities but I can do it to basically any photo. I did one for Fulkth today of her and her husband. I am currently in the process of setting up an art shop since it seems quite a few people would like them <3

The only thing is the quality of pictures isn't so good since I don't have a scanner :cry:

What sort of art do you do?

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 10:55 PM

Oh, are you in Scotland then?
And yeah well I am Japanese and we both are very interested in that kind of thing. ^.^
Lol awww at least your tummy got filled xB
Ohhh cool : DI like it. So you have fun with that then?
I jump around somewhere between anime and realism lol. This is my dA if you wanna look around. ^_^

The Wandering Poet 07-13-2010 10:56 PM

By the way venom... XD shes my fiance... she's used to that creepy stalkerish stuff :lol:

o.o ooh you do that.... umm... that black and white thingie that art teacher was talking about... *So not an artist*

Honey - You need to finish that comic~ XD

Vexatious~Venom 07-13-2010 11:04 PM

@Dreams: Indeed I am ^^

Ah, that would explain it. I would have asked if you could speak Japanese, but that sort of answers itself :lol: One of the girls I know is teaching herself Japanese, she sang a song in the school talent show.

Yeah. I think I'll stick to tomato soup tomorrow though, I am addicted to that stuff :drool:

Thank you <3 Yeah, I love drawing them. I do a lot of cartoony style things too, but I prefer the sillhouette style arts :yes:

I shall take a look now. :)


@Poet: Well you never can be too carefull, I accidentally creep out way too many people so I thought I better just clarify xD

Indeed I did. I'm afraid you're going to need to go a bit deeper in your explanation of black and white thingie though :lol:

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 11:08 PM

Lol XD we stalk each other muuur owo <3 but we know about it so lol idk how much that counts. XD..!
And yeah well my grandma spoke Japanese all the time but didn't like to confuse us, so spoke broken english around us. And my dad moved to America when he was young so the whole mixture, I did get a good head start being Japanese but most of it is because of personal study. ;P

Kaze- lol yah I do huh :lol: been so long. You know one of the reasons why is because it is ready to do, but it is ready to do on the downstairs computer. Ever since I got my laptop I totally forgot about it. XDD I actually have like 3 comics I started last year but only got to the beginning 2-15 pages. : P

The Wandering Poet 07-13-2010 11:09 PM

:lol: she's pretty hard to creep out too... her username is the way it is for a reason XD

Ah sorry... but I only got a C trying my hardest... >.< those were what I did really bad at... and proportions... and scale... and shape... but all I know of them is as a blak and white pic thingie sorry ^^"

strange_dreams_512 07-13-2010 11:11 PM

Aww honey lol you don't have to apologize about your art. XDD If you want to improve it takes patience. Not forcing something down your throat that you don't want to take in. Like that, you will never find your style. It takes mostly just seeing art in your life and saying like, "I like that one really well." and noticing patterns of what interests you over other things.

Edit- gonna get food (: be back soon

Vexatious~Venom 07-13-2010 11:12 PM

@Dreams: Well even the people who know I stalk them still tend to get a little creeped out at times. I think it counts yes xD

The only language I can speak is english. I failed so epically at french it is actually unreal :lol:

I like your art by the way ^^

Happy nomming :)

@Poet: I failed art too. I was not reccommended to carry it on for this year, well the one that starts in August anyway. My still life of fruit sucked majorly. Black and white thingie will do xD

The Wandering Poet 07-13-2010 11:17 PM

:lol: the art I like is yours and Larele's... o.o I'll never amount to your people or her soft fuzzy thingies

@ Venom - yknow... o.o cool thing is... it looks like you used like a perminant marker or something =3

Vexatious~Venom 07-13-2010 11:18 PM

I used gel pen xD

The Wandering Poet 07-13-2010 11:19 PM

o.o umm.... what's a gel pen?

Vexatious~Venom 07-13-2010 11:22 PM

You know biro pens? It's basically one of them just it has ink that is a gel ^^

The Wandering Poet 07-13-2010 11:23 PM

Ok... what's a biro pen? o.o (wow I know nothing about pens......)
