Did Mr. Poe Try Writing Poetry?
  Of course, and he was rather good at it!
  Yeah, but he sucked it at it.
  Nah, he was too lazy.
  I don't know, and I don't really care.
  EHEHEHEHEHE! I GET IT!

C'mon!
BB!
You know you!
Want to write?
Something highly structured!
And lyrical, yes!
BUT
I'd rather have the poem.
THE POEM?
The poem.
I'd rather HAVE.
Have?
Have the poem.
Poem do the work for me!

There's a boy named Jeff,
Who I can't say is dumb,
But in the sixth grade,
He used to suck his thumb.

Jeff is a girl- I mean boy wink -Who is very lazy.
He's very immature,
And often really crazy.

He used to have a girlfriend,
Who dumped him on the spot.
Now he's pretty sad,
And starting to rot a lot.

Everything you've read is very true.
But Jeff,
I'm your little sister!
And I love you.



MOOOOO!!!!

I am writing a
Haiku about a haiku
Now your brain is fried.

I journey down into the Land of Zorb,
Just looking for the part of myself,
Lost to the sands of time. Deep down I know that
The thing I chase never existed. Still, I play this
Game, trying to cover up the truth laid vertically.

I loved your haiku, Mooby! I shall print it out and stick it inside my locker. ^.^

Mooby... you should totally get your Haiku published.

And, has anyone heard of Dylan Thomas?

has anyone heard of Dylan Thomas?

OMG I LOVE DYLAN THOMAS!!! I just read him for the first time in my Intro to Poetry class last year (yes, i was the most upperclasswoman in the class). His work is so amazing!

Woe, I have never heard of him! *Makes a note to Wiki him later on*

I don't really have a favourite poet, but I have some favourite poems, like My Last Duchess (by Robert Browning), and a few others that I can not remember right now.

I just dreamed this poem up last night:

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan a stately pleasure-dome decree...

Oh, wait.

Oh my God! I love Dylan Thomas! I think one of my favourite poems by him is "And Death Shall Have No Dominion". It's beautiful.

So, favourite poets...

I'm not sure if I can count Shakespeare and Wilde, because they weren't exclusively known for poetry (and in Wilde's case, I believe, he wasn't known for his poetry at all). But I do love both of them, as much of a classic literature nerd that probably makes me.

I don't have any favorite poets, just favorite poems.

That being said, Shakespeare, a.k.a. Nikkun and C Chan's Bane.

Well, then, what are some of your favourite poems? I'm looking for new poetry to read.

METASTASIS

I once wrote a poem
As fine as could be,
About another such poem
That was written by me.

And the best part about
THAT poem, you see:
It tells of a popular song
That was written by me.

A song of a story
About another song,
About a handsome young lad
Who was writing a long

Article about films
With plots about books
Of poems about novels
Of a certain young cook's

Song about a poem
That you don't want to miss;
It was a wonderful poem
That started like this:

"I once wrote a poem
As fine as could be,
About another such poem
That was written by me."
