Bleh Yeah...Whatever...Good Luck In Rd.3 Bro...
Its like learning to walk, then talk back, Persians learning to steal From any person at will, harbour Lemming morality determined to kill First to the meal, sweet sustenance born upon vision sumbliminally Instead, inner desire is the wildfire torching ego pedestals..terminally? Its being heard in the street..by... Chaplin performers...Its torture The forthcoming contorsion through Tycoons augmenting a fortune ...Okay, so my diatribe irony does nothing for poetic justification If anything... call this buoyant bitterness a comical erasure... A reinactment of enslavement propelled wandering through baron corridoors Or like the omniscient commodore seeing even more, yonder off-course Even beyond the remorse reflected in the glass thats looking back Missing the crooked back, but no giving back to the image looking back But he isn't looking back...In fact thats the freeze frame forever seen from your broken parents dream, as your grubby nails unpicked the seams ...Okay, so we all enjoy copious ordeal revealed on faces in the crowd Unborn pals or blind eye apparents, tormented souls or impulsive foes The motion woes pleasure with pain, approves descension from gain There is a little tyrant inside of us all... trying to escape!!!!!! Piloting to guide the vanity stimuli, but inner hope is submerged Lost soul preaching that if the joy is cloaked, how can we find the words? Its now omega terms, what we heard was mediocre, nothingness in motion The world stops to listen... but still nothing, I guess we were broken Everything hidden is a puzzle, time devourers, I just don't have the ticks Im only finding high spirits in liquor cabinets, I don't have the tocks either I have the cider though, Im sure theres a hidden meaning in there somewhere.... |

we'll see how this turns out.
Here We Are In The Beginning; No, Hope Is Not Yet On The Lord's Chart Thousand Words Paint A Picture;That Doesn't Create An Artist's Heart A Hundred Million Metaphors, To Paint The Sisteen Chapel, For A Start The Epitome Of The Underdogs, And Seemingly Barking Up The Wrong Tree Rhyming Couplets Will Not Pass For Style, Better Turn Them Into Three Who Really Believes That What Is Kindness Can Pass For What Is Weak? Who Conceived The Very Reality, I Take For Access Granted Sneak Peek? Hoping For A Savior, Or At The Very Least The Government's Equivalent Human Punching Bags Charging Sixteen Dollars/Hour; Who Needs To Vent? Who's Heaven Sent? And Who Really Gives Up Love For Lent?Not Ever You So Teach Us Pain And Death And Abstinance, It is What You Have To Do To Teach Me Why The Sky Is Blue, And What To Do To Cheer Him Back Up Father Time and Yaweh Are Fist Fighting Cause Mother Nature Is A Slut So Comprehend These Words I Send; Sit And Comprehend The Eternal Hope And See Just How Far Your Friends Will Stray Because Of A Simple Joke But The Hope Will Stay Nearby, That Savior Is Leaving Your Wish List And Proceeding To Decend From The Clouds; What You Thought Was Bliss Is Now Just An Inch Above Your Head, So You Abandon Hopes For Facts Instead Of Remaining True And Strong, You Abandon All Your Camaracs And Take The Easy Way Out; Start Working The Cash At The Home Depot Come Crawling Back To Blind Faith; Use Sunglasses To Deceive People Your Skeleton Is Roughly Shod, You Don't Understand, Turn To God Everything Is Gone, Here Child, Become My Lament You Spent Many A Year Telling Me To Get Bent Hope Is No More, That's Right, No More Bliss Yes, Come Closer, See How Sharp The Knife Is You Need A New Hope...

another close one. both had CRAZY imagery, great ideas expressed, strong vocab, originality...
but i have to give this to n-demik for the following lines: "Its like learning to walk, then talk back, Persians learning to steal" "But he isn't looking back...In fact thats the freeze frame forever seen from your broken parents dream, as your grubby nails unpicked the seams" "There is a little tyrant inside of us all... trying to escape!!!!!!" "Im only finding high spirits in liquor cabinets," vote- N-demik you got nothing to be ashamed of understatment. good work from both of you. |

Understatement does deserve more than one sentence...
But..let's not everyone jump on Johnny, now... If he doesnt check back in and see this, Ill tell him to edit his post and add a little more reasoning.. He's not a regular at the judging..he knows now. |

Anyways...
Interesting topic and nice, NICE effort put forth by both fellaz. The joy was REALLY hidden..lol... N-Demik~ Wow...Very well written...Content was interesting and was accentuated even more so by the eloquent vocabulary and knowledgable references..Very complex piece, I liked the ending, also. "Piloting to guide the vanity stimuli, but inner hope is submerged Lost soul preaching that if the joy is cloaked, how can we find the words?" Great ^Line and subtle reference to the topic...Nice. "But he isn't looking back...In fact thats the freeze frame forever seen from your broken parents dream, as your grubby nails unpicked the seams" ^That line was incredible....Brilliant imagery, good way to get the message across....I really liked this piece. Nice job Demik. Understatement~ YES. I loved this verse. The first five lines pulled me way in, great style and execution. "Here We Are In The Beginning; No, Hope Is Not Yet On The Lord's Chart Thousand Words Paint A Picture;That Doesn't Create An Artist's Heart" The rhyming couplets line was nice too....Really great way to start off, beautifully written. "Who's Heaven Sent? And Who Really Gives Up Love For Lent?Not Ever You So Teach Us Pain And Death And Abstinance, It is What You Have To Do To Teach Me Why The Sky Is Blue, And What To Do To Cheer Him Back Up Father Time and Yaweh Are Fist Fighting Cause Mother Nature Is A Slut" This was soooo captivating..It made me think, and the imagery in the last line I quoted was humerous but then quickly turned serious as the message filters thru it all....I loved it. "So Comprehend These Words I Send; Sit And Comprehend The Eternal Hope And See Just How Far Your Friends Will Stray Because Of A Simple Joke" I really like that line..Has a lot of meaning to it. And lastly: "Your Skeleton Is Roughly Shod, You Don't Understand, Turn To God" Great conclusion, along with the final lines it italics at the very bottom..very moving way to end the piece.. Ummm, to be perfectly honest I read these and I knew right after which one I wanted to vote for...You can't really complain much about either of the two verses, two very talented poets, both brought great interpretation of the topic to the table..so really, it all comes down to which one reaches the reader more, which one has more to offer the mind's eye...Which leaves you with a greater feeling after reading it... And for me, in this case, It was Understatement's verse. All around, his verse had a greater impact on me as the reader. Great job by both tho. VOTE: UNDERSTATEMENT ps- I still love you, Rook Phrantik's will be the deciding vote. Last edited by DaGyrlRemarqabL : 09-23-03 at 04:50 PM. |

It's important that everyone feels they are being fairly judged, and Johnny's critiquing (or lack there of) just wasn't cuttin' it.
Camarac will be judging (assuming he agrees to), So all of Johnny's votes thus far will be DISREGARDED. This battle is 1-0 right now, in Understatament's favor. It is awaiting votes from Phrantik and/or Camarac. Last edited by DaGyrlRemarqabL : 09-23-03 at 09:09 PM. |

you want a couple of more reasons why i didnt vote for understatement? alright content, i'll concede to your bitching and go into more depth.
understatement did have some great work done on this. a few stand out lines of his i noticed: "The Epitome Of The Underdogs, And Seemingly Barking Up The Wrong Tree" "Human Punching Bags Charging Sixteen Dollars/Hour; Who Needs To Vent?" "Your Skeleton Is Roughly Shod, You Don't Understand, Turn To God" 3 killer lines. i still think n-demik was both more on-topic and wittier than understatement. and i've been asked to judge because ive been on this site longer than all the other judges except DaGyrlRemarqabL. if you wanna disregard my votes even though they were fair and balanced and contained enough detail for anyone to understand why i voted fine. just dont bother asking me for any favours in the future coz you wasted my fucking time. |
