The Poets Laureate: [Please Lock]


Raelen

Recommended Posts

Based on my webcomic that isn't up yet.

[spoiler=The Torment of Negine]

To think' date=' to dream, to hurt, to scream

'Twas all she was on cruel Etern

Now he has shown her truth, to turn

Her life, its meaning, upside down

And worse, continue, turn around

Destroy her pure integrity.

She can't see Machiavelli

Her angel guard that spurred her forth

In life, and with her, her mentor

So now, she breaks, she cries, she screams.

 

 

You'd need to know Negine and Saedra to understand any of this, so just take it as it is for now.

 

[spoiler=The Tune of the Twin Towers']

The Tune of the Twin Towers

For no one is left,

for it’s only a terrifying memory,

from the white ghosts all a row,

From the murky leaking roof to the dampened windows,

“therefore” said the shadow’s of the ghosts “ this is the tune of the twin towers.

 

For no one sees them,

They sit by the ruble remains of the towers,

They cry on what had happened,

“Alas” said the shadow’s of the ghosts “this is the tune of the twin towers”

 

If any of the living would go to the remains of the towers now,

They would wind up dieing in the rubble just like the others,

All of the poor unfortunate souls claimed by the twin towers,

“death is sadness” said the shadow’s of the ghosts “this is the tune of the twin towers”

 

It's prose. Cool imagery, though.

[spoiler=“Follow Your Dreams”]

“Follow Your Dreams”

Follow your dreams on a journey,

Follow your dreams across the country,

Follow your dreams to the Pacific Ocean,

Follow your dreams to the great caves that have been reformed by man,

Follow your dreams and let your heart swore into the land of laudably and dreams…

 

 

Pacific Ocean? "Laudably?"

[spoiler=Hatred]

“Hatred”

The feeling I hate most,

The feeling that controls my anger,

The feeling that you get when you want to kill someone,

The feeling that lives on a flame that burns brighter every second of every day,

The feeling that releases the storm inside,

The feeling I always feel is hatred…

 

How does hatred control anger? Also, random angst FTL.

[spoiler=“Captured”]

“Captured”

Why was I the one,

Why did the Fire Lord chose me,

Why was I the next Moon God

Why was I the most powerful out of the Moon tribe,

 

Now because of that I’ve been captured,

Now I’m in the Fire Lord’s torture chamber,

Now my powers are going to be taken away,

Now I’m never going to see Reala again,

Now that I’m here my life to over,

 

There is no hope for me now,

There won’t be any prayers answered,

 

Here I won’t even see tomorrow,

Here I see my life before me,

Here my last breath and memory,

I see Reala the one I love and the one who has protected me all this time,

I see the memory fade to black…. Here being captured really sucks!

 

 

Background knowledge pl0x. Also, that last line is horrible.

 

 

You could use some work on conventions.

 

ok what is ftl? and Laudably?" was supposed to be lullaby, also my hatred does control my anger because it lives off of it. and my last poem the last line is suppose to add humor

STFU.

The poems Wolf made were fantastic.

The first, imagery, absolutely amazing.

The second, true. People really do need to follow their dreams.

And i believe "Laudably" means praise.

Follow your dreams wolf.

The last line of "Captured" was not meant to be horrible, it was to add humor and give you something to laugh with.

FTL? right. That was just stupid.

(Speaks to wolf)

Hatred consumes on anger.

As a lion pounces on a deer,

The more powerful consumes the weak.

But one thing.

Dont thrive on the powerful.

Dont be the hunter.

ok what is ftl? and Laudably?" was supposed to be lullaby, also my hatred does control my anger because it lives off of it. So... it doesn't regulate or moderate it at all. Hatred as you describe it is an extension of anger, not a commander of it. and my last poem the last line is suppose to add humor. It failed miserably.

 

STFU.

The poems Wolf made were fantastic.

Bad conventions make it lose all of its fantasy.

The first' date=' imagery, absolutely amazing.

[b']At least, it would be if the conventions were better. You can't follow bad grammar into poetic language.[/b]

The second, true. People really do need to follow their dreams.

And i believe "Laudably" means praise.

Teh noez. He said 'lullaby'. Although, that is what laudably means (approvingly); it just seemed out of context.

Follow your dreams wolf.

The last line of "Captured" was not meant to be horrible, it was to add humor and give you something to laugh with. Again, it failed miserably. It just screwed up the entire poem.

FTL? right. That was just stupid. THANK YOU.

Wow. Your disgracing someones poetry.

Your not a poet.

Praise makes a real poet. Not criticism.

You cant say that bad grammar totally ruins the poem...

its the Authors way of talking.

You cant say that adding humor too a sad poem,

It lightens up the mood, which is good.

Please. If all your gonna do is just plague wolfs mind with idiotic criticism, please stop.

Praise where praise is due has already been given. Once the good in a poem/proem/prose has already been given, only criticism, which had yet to be dealt, can assist the writer.

One cannot immediately reverse the effect of a poem with a single, out-of-context line, especially one so painfully emotional.

Conventions are absolutely necessary to create the immersing effect of poetic language; poor mechanics distract an educated reader from the poem immediately, thus withdrawing the reader from the poem's imagery-created world. They are especially needed in such an imagery-laden proem as Twin Towers, which was the main target of that criticism, though in all poems, grammar is even more essential than it is in prose.

If you really think I'm going to stop being a ridiculously finicky adjudicator at the prompting of a lone defender, you obviously don't know me.

It's your decision whether or not to take my advice.

 

The way I see it, the actual message is the same no matter how it is said, so why waste the time sugar-coating things?

 

Besides, if this were a created card, that review would have been very nice. Probably the same in poetry, save that there isn't nearly as much crap.

Are you serious?

 

Without criticism' date=' how in the world do you propose to improve?

[/quote']

 

The above is true. Without criticism you cannot improve but on the other hand you tend to not give constructive criticism. you are a lot like the people who say that something is bad without explaining as to why. If you were to give a more positive criticism instead of the constant negative criticism, I think people wouldn't have as much of a problem.
