Well as I sit In This Room Alone But Together With ..........
I Finnaly Come To Realize That Life Becomes This............
The Mystery Is Mind Bagaling With .......At The End
Becuase Me and ......... Were alone but It all Depends
On What Was to come On ........ when We were together
Maybe Eternal Life With ......Meant That Life Would Get better
Well if Your Quit Wondering Who ......Really Is
Then Youll Have to ask ....... Where He Lives
Then You Can Visit Him And ask Him Who Is He
That Sitteth In The room alone And Yet Sitteth With Three?
How could that Be .....when Your all Alone Then There is only One
Buut From what I Know is That He Has also Sits with The sun
He sits with the Moon and he even Sits with the stars
He Would Come To Your house If He hade a Car
But Yet And Still He Isnt In My Category Of people to see
When Im All Alone In My room .................With Three
So I Sit In a Room Alone Together With .......*Life*
Bcuz Life Is My Price of Dealing With This Strife
But we know That Sitting Alone Together Is a Bad thing to Do
Because Sitting Alone Together You Might get a visit .......but from who ?

Quickie !

My Dream

IP: 6FA7 7304

The Sun beams down upon my face
Sweat boils on my forehead
One last sip of fluid
And I again move on
The path has turned rough
Skin peels back on my feet
Blood drips, leaving my mark

Glance rearward, hollow emptiness
Not a soul within sight
They’ve taken the paved path
The easy way out
I won’t

My dream life is at the end
Of all these stones and glass
A little pain
For a lot of joy
Is all worth it
Just my dream and I
Together….Alone

Meh, this was a below average battle in my opinion. It didn't
really seem like either put too much time into developing a solid
idea behind their poems. Stanza, your poem confused the hell out
of me to be quite honest. I was lost with all of ..... and randomness
of your lines. If there was a concrete idea somewhere in there i'm
sorry but i completely missed it. Whyte, not that great from you either
man. I really can't say I was feeling your approach but at least I could
grasp what you were talking about. Kind of simplistic in you wording
and imagery but sometimes that's enough; and in this case it was.

V/ Whyte...more coherent/personal preference

My vote goes to Whyte Ave. because I was feeling his approach a bit more and was also sensing more creativity and imagery in his piece. Both had a quite unusal approach of topic which I enjoyed to read, good emotion as well but Stanza's wasn't as clear as Whyte Ave's drop in my opinion. I like how both of you kept the vocab rather simple, it gave the poem a more serene yet powerful vibe
