Think you're going to puke if you read one more bad poem?

Yellow puked a pebble on the poem down below
The poem puked a boulder back to let that Yellow know

There's an art to that

While it's true that there are varying degrees of quality on this board, was this post necessary?

Just wondering if you feel better.

OK... instead of "necessary", how about inappropriate, unwelcomed, and devoid of value?

Yellow

there are a great many posts devoid of value on all the pages of this message board...

listen, i'm not saying anything bad about anyone

i didn't even say i was talking about any poetry here

i am attempting to converse with poets about poetry

Goulet

the reason there are so many bad poems,
and there are,
is because no one offers any constructive criticism
the first time i had a poetry class in school
my writing was so much different
and by the time i graduated it was somewhat good
i puke when i look back on the majority of my old poems

Yellow

thank you, yes... thank you...

constructive criticism can be a good thing, no... IS a good thing

OK, fine, we're all good. I guess I just don't think of "constructive criticism" and "i think I'm gonna puke" as the same thing. So I got off track a little.

Goulet

when someone reads somethign of mine and says,
"I think I'm going to puke!"
i take it as constructive criticism because i know i need to rewrite

Yellow

again, this post didn't target any one poem
and i'd never be so brash to anyone directly
becuase there isn't any one poem that all by itself
makes me nauseous...

but collectively, the whole effect is greater than the sum of the parts...

Actually, I'd be pretty flattered if someone puked after reading something I wrote.

i usually only make myself puke, not in a bulimic sort of way, but more like a self-loathing combined with vertigo and too much caffeine way.

staying in equilibrium too long is so fucking boring. unfortunately the female psyche is geared towards it, and unnatural deviance can carry with it uncertain results and effects. i'm cataloging responses to various stimuli and their combinations. there is a degree of nausea to anything that is exciting and unusual.

in fact, that feeling when you first fall in love? it's pretty sickening. same when you fall out of love, a plethora of afflictions. however, if the same chemicals can be stimulated to be manufactured by the brain, voila, sick all the time, bad poetry or not.

just before it's noon
take me to the moon
in your ear i'll croon
a dirty little tune

gag me with a spoon
count the months till June
let's head for the lagoon
you lovely silly goon

i have no idea what you're talking about
exciting and unusual does not make me puke
disgusting and infectious make me puke


like... gag me with a spoon...
