OMGAKITTY Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 The day started fine, not a cloud in the skyI logged onto my forum, I was eating apple pieSaw some cool threads, I clicked on it onceOhmigoshnoway! A new music video by The Purple Dunce! I clicked the link with great amount glee,But my joy turned to horror, and it was too late to flee!The familiar chords struck my earsI think I might have shed a tear There on my screen, was that familiar guyI merely groaned and asked to myself,"Why, Rick Astley, why?"

Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I really love the last "paragraph". It is actually quite funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 lol. "Paragraphs" in poetry are called stanzas, fyi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I always thought poems had either 4, 6, 8, 10, etc. amount of stanza's, so I wasn't sure. And I always thought stanza's had to stay constant with the amount of lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMGAKITTY Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Heh. It might have to. I don't do this poetry stuff. I call each section a stanza and no one's corrected me yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I'm probably wrong then, as I am not fluent in the actual "writings" of poetry, and the rules and whatnot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 lol. I say funk it. If I call it poetry, its poetry. I mean, look at modern art. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 When you look at abstract art, it looks like something I drew in the third grade. But I didn't get famous for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Modern art is far worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntar! Posted September 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 WELL, Dr.Seuss wrote stupid stuff for a living. You write pointless stuff for the hell of it. SEE THE DIFFERENCE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 WELL, Poe wrote depressing stuff for a living, and then killed himself. You write depressing stuf for the hell of it. SEE THE DIFFERENCE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Prince Hunter, in our defense, we are not writing stupid crap senselessly to increase our post count. I think we are opposite enough from Ragnarok to not give a damn about post counts. We are writing poems for the lulz, sure, but they all have underlying meanings like your poems do.

Womi Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 There is no limit, which poems are stupid and which aren't.So, no matter what we write; as long as there is a lyrical meaning or sense behind it, its not wrong. And just because we write about funny stuffz and not about unnecessary sad death-poem stuff, doesnt mean that we're spamming poemfailorz.

Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 You wrote a haiku about the word "lol". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Womi Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Yes. Which was a haiku. A haiku is a valid form of poetry. And to laugh is healthy. Do it often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Yes, but it's because of you mainly that me and OMGAKITTY have to be restricted in what we say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntar! Posted September 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Look, I dont want to limit you guys with your poetry. But as long as you write stuff thats not just for the lulz, you shouldn't have a problem. Think of this as an Official "Non-lulz-filled" Poetry Thread. I made this thread to cut down on the stupid poetry written for the lulz, and I'm keeping it to its purpose. OMGAKITTY, sure, my stuff is depressing. Yeah. So is Poe's. But it has meaning that isn't for the hell of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 I just disagree that all poetry has to be super srs business in order to be poetry. Another famous example of lulzy poetry is stuff from Lewis Carroll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Our poems are stupid and lulzy, but they actually have a meaning and are vague enough to be interpreted. Isn't that what poetry is? And we are not writing sheet like DoP and WiiOmi: "lol lol lol lol lolI went to the bathroom now.lol lol lol lol lol" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Our poems are stupid and lulzy' date=' but they actually have a meaning and are vague enough to be interpreted. Isn't that what poetry is?[/quote'] Poetry - is a form of literary art in which language is used for its aesthetic and evocative qualities in addition to, or in lieu of, its apparent meaning. Poetry may be written independently, as discrete poems, or may occur in conjunction with other arts, as in poetic drama, hymns or lyrics. Poetry, and discussions of it, have a long history. Early attempts to define poetry, such as Aristotle's Poetics, focused on the uses of speech in rhetoric, drama, song and comedy. It can be for the lulz but the stupid junk you guys are posting is not considered poetry, it's stupid behond belief. If your gonna do a one for the lulz try to make it sound funny... the stuff you guys are posting is not funny but a lolfail!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said our poems are written for the LULZ, not to receive LOL's. And check the bolded again. Every single poem either I or OMGAKITTY wrote (albeit the discussion poems) fits that description.

I'd say your just doing it for post counts but hey i don't kno....so you right poems for the lolz...like this one "lol lol lol lol lolI went to the bathroom now.lol lol lol lol lol" S-t-u-p-i-d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was an example of what DoP and WiiOmi were posting. OMGAKITTY and my poems are not even near the level of stupidity is that. Seriously, get a brain or stop questioning me. One or the other. And if we were doing this for post count, both of us would be way into the 10,000's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
