My apologies to Chasin for using his thread as a debate thread...
but seeing as how your poem inspired this overwhelming response it's probably only fitting.... plus its free up's for your piece.
To the others...
I agreed that poetry is not about being good. And I said its not only about expressing inner emotions... then I suggested he draw a picture.
No hating here. I just think that when stupid people write poems and try to pass it off as poetry driven by emotion, what it really is is bullshit tied together by a string.
but Dths is right... he probably meant more by what he said.
At least we can hope so...
