Getting inside each others heads is what it is all about to me. Being new to this I'm seeing things pretty
different than others, maybe.

And that's fine, I have no problem getting into peoples heads?
Again, the point is that there are the same threads in other sections of the board for these things.
This section is for poetry, prose, and original music yeah?

when i log on here and see that someone else has posted in the poetry section i used to get excited!!!
now, not so much because what was posted was probably not even poetry, prose, nor original music.

I've also noticed a lot of very talented writers no longer post here, and many have told me it's because of this.
That is sad if you ask me. Why can't we just keep the poetry section for poetry?
why is that so hard?
I don't mind the instant thoughts thread because many of the thoughts are very poetic.

This VERY conversation we are having right now is what I'm talking about.... this would have NEVER
taken place here in this thread a year or two ago.

That is my point.
You and I are debating an analogy. We are not debating poetry, or even ones interpretation of a poem, but and analogy.

I'm not pointing you out, I've contributed as well. which makes me :fp:

who's thread is "instant thoughts?
who's thread was instant threads number one?
this is number two

the original instant thoughts thread is locked up tighter than the hubs of hell for this exact bullshit going on here & it thoroughly pissed me the fuck off & it hurt me. the original instant thoughts thread was constantly in the top few posts & forever lived on page one at the very top with a shit ton of pages to its entirety. i took pride in that exact fact. i chadwick take my writing extremely serious as it is who i am. i believe if one is a writer of poetry or any other writing form or even any art form it is to be taken seriously. yes comedy & light hearted shit is good.

do not get my poetry threads locked up or shit will hit the fan. i am as serious as a heart attack. now take the games elsewhere. here we write creatively on the fly. you are more than welcome to join us but do not screw my shit up.

thank you

I don't know about any of all that but isn't this someone else's thread? rollings? My questions to Wolf are innocent and were intended to see how he would handle the problem at hand. It sounds like there could be a way, maybe. I write poems to my girl often accompanied by stick figures for action. She saves them, has for 35 years. Poetry from the heart is cherished.

rollings

simply, to everybody:

"Post your poetry/prose and your personal music links here."

so if its not strictly your poetry, or your prose, or a sample of your own music,
(or a comment on somebody else's poetry, etc.),

there's literally hundreds of threads to post "what's on your mind" and otherwise in AET

chadwick

when the first instant thoughts thread was created (which means I am the author, inventor & captain) it was awesome. it was later locked & it was enormous. rollings asked me if she could have my permission to reopen another & kat & sea already said I could but I was holding out because I was pissed off.

I gave rollings the ok to reopen what is originally my shit. don't fuck with it.

Well I wouldn't handle it by getting someones thread closed.
I'd like to think that by just bringing it up, that people would realize that we are not following what the thread, or even this section is meant for.
I would really like to think that bringing it up a few times over the course of a few months would make people
realize this.
I would like to think even MORE that people would be mature enough to handle a damned message board
without all the nonsense.
I guess i just like to think a lot, because it sure hasn't been happening.

As I stated. In this thread, the non poetery aspect of it didnt bother me so much,.. because it usually seems
to be a "stream of thought" that ultimatly leads to poetry in many cases.

Many of the poems i've posted have started with a random sentence floating in my head that i've posted here.
Then it turns into something else.

I Just don't like having to search for the poems in the "poetry" section ya' know?

again, not directing this at you, but you are the one who replied to mine and justam's analogy.
as if defending the non poetry posts here.
whatever, it's all good.

that's why God invented PM's. Us poetry fans can just continue to PM our poems to each other instead of
posting them out there like we all did at one time.

being broke sucks
then when the money starts
rolling in
there is relief
being loveless sucks
then when love reappears
there is disbelief
good grief

Thank you I take that to heart from a master poet. I for one would never mess with your Shit. Our Shit is too important to all of us.

Three days away
Three days gone
Three days off
Work has become home
Think i'd rather be there
If not in her arms
Three days away
Three days gone
Three days off
Without her is like working fingers
To the bone
Three days of sun
Three days alone
Three days blown

The weather man claims
I won't even have the rain
To hide three days of pain

There's this topic on my mind
related to kindness and silence
(not standing up for one's self/cheek-turning)
and the validity of anger sometimes
sometimes it IS the right response
but how does one use it appropriately
rather than with that blind red vision?!
that sputtering, confused muttering/shouting?
When I'm extremely mad,
sometimes I just cry

Then just cry dear. I'm saying that because I've since learned, sometimes its better to cry from the hurt, than try to explain why it hurt you.
Sometimes the response to why something hurt you; hurts even more.

I'm drunk though, and could very possibly be talking out of turn, or just out of my ass.

(part I)... living is pain

spirits blowing through here like a dust storm
a man within a top hat bows
and serves up breakfast
says it's good
says it's all for me but to share
says it is his light
says it is his darkest of shit

wind whistles like a rolling boulder
maybe an entire mountain falling down
this is the breeze of very old bones
and they hurt

last night was the best
as all 12 hour sleeps are
anymore all i want to do is sleep
ask my dreams
ask my broken down fucking ass
ask & see what the spirits have to say
they float my bedroom with messages
cold air blown in
raining out drips the trees
new blossoms feel healed

my body aches
it is hurting & hurts to live here
i am alone
like the winds
i am alone
a simple splinter (wedges) works its way into my hand
as if it is a book i am to read

rollings

when walking at night
caught on the breeze
the smell of a blooming flower
made only more beautiful
if being with you
what would we say about it?
nothing at all
but its just that we would be
