All of the poems are so good! I'm just blown away!

(perhaps my favorite is Alice Never Got to Wonderland)

THEATRE

Hush now child, watch the stage.
The lights are off, the curtain is raised.
The audience is quiet, anticipating much.
They will get a show that ought to be God-praised.

The lights go up, softly, gently.
The actors hold their poses, waiting for cues.
The spot is on, scene one has started
Now sit back and watch, later pay your dues.

Perfect acting, never a misstep, not that you can tell.
Backstage they’re hungry, watching, waiting,
Until it’s their turn in the light, in your eyes.
They jostle in the wings, their enemies, they’re baiting.

Because you see, my child, there is in fact
Drama off the stage as much as on.
When the lights are out and the curtain down,
A bloody race is run for a part, until it’s won.

Once the part is taken, it is acted with skill
And through that you can see who deserved it, really.
Acted with mind and body, acted with heart
The parts they play become a part of them, see?

They bare their soul for you on stage.
How odd they do so in another’s skin.
But it is through their talent that you see
What they truly are, to what they’re truly akin.

The last words I leave you now are these:
And you know they are for a fact.
Trust nothing in the Theatre,
For after all, it’s all an act.

Let the senses envelop you.
Let it all come out.
Ink flows from the pen.
The story now will shout.

The days and years will slow.
Nothing else exists.
A second is eternal.
A few small words are bliss.

Feelings, thoughts, and emotions.
Flowing through the page.
We are what we write.
From now to the last age.

Honorable Man
Based off Kuwabara from Yu Yu Hakusho
(I'd like to Note that this is Fox Demoness Nizuki on my main account)


They never see me for who I am
A brother, a fighter, an honorable man
They judge me on a biased base
My humor, my intellect, my perfectly normal face.
So my powers may not be a stong as your demon senses may be
I dont want to be like you, I just want to be me
I want to fight for whats just
Families, children, honor codes, a must
I am just a human, working along demons side
Tease me and taunt me as you wish, I will never hide.
Sure, I may not be as strong as you
No demonic powers or super speed, yet I still manage to pull through
...
So stand there and continue to ridicule me for what I am
For when it comes down to it, I will always be the more honorable man.

Aaaaahhhhh!! I loved it! I love Kuwabara, he's definitely one of my favorite characters in YYH! You described what he goes through perfectly... and you still made it rhyme! ^^ I especially like the last two lines. They're my faves.

Thank you very much ^^. Kuwabara is so mistreated, he deserves more credit than the others give him. It may not be my best piece but I really love that several Kuwabara fans have found it to their liking so far. So thank you very much ^^

The sky a deep yet soft blue
The moon shinning brightly over head
Breeze of crisp air on my face
A beautiful fall night in Minnesota

Past the bustling city the sky barely glows
Tree rustling in the wind
Shadows now within shadows
A beautiful fall night in minnesota

Everything turning black
My mind finally close to peace
This is were i belong
A beautiful fall night in Minnesota


i havent revised much yet so please be nice

@Bleach: That was a very lovely peom. I love the subject matter which you chose to write about. It's very unique, and not often seen around gaia guilds (That I have been a part of, anyway)

Fantastic images, it makes me want to take a trip to Minnesota. Great job!

@Naeshira:
The words of your poem flow beautifully, and so naturally off the tongue. I could imagine every bit in my head as I read it. Truely one of the best poems I have read in a great while. Thank you for sharing that beautiful piece with the guild, and bravo. Fantastic job. ^^

I’m speechless. So much metaphor can be taken from that one post; absolutely breathtaking.

Nujunuju1
Alice Never Got to Wonderland

You’ve got the fire in your eyes
You’ve got the burning in your soul
and just like your name is Alice
You’re falling down the rabbit hole
And there’s no cushion at the bottom
no way to break your fall
As you get closer to rock bottom
into the night forever call
You don’t know just where you’re going
No Cheshire cat to lead your way
No silky smooth voice
As his smile begins to fade
Tweedle Dee and tweedle dumb
Have never helped you down your path
But I guess that’s what you can expect
from the whiskey and the flask
Your life is just a mess
And you’re always so very late
as the Caterpillar picks you up
for yet another Smokey date
But you choose this path yourself
you ate the mushroom and grew so small
now you feel alone inside this city
Inside these walls that stand so tall
But unlike Your counter parts fairy tale
The red queen is your fame
Her silver cards that Hurt so well
release her from your veins
In the land of make believe
You can escape at last
But in this world where you now live
You can’t Undo your past.

This was my favorite of all of them. Nujunuju1, you have REAL talent!

Fox Demoness Nizuki
Can’t you see me falling here?

In front of your very eyes

Choking on the tears

Of the innocents that have lost their lives

Can’t you see your face?

Reflected off the damp pools of blood

On the very place

Where you murdered your first love?

Help me

I’m dieing here alone

Trapped in the confines of my mind

Wishing that some one would come and

Help me!

And this was my second favorite. biggrin




I kinda like darker stuff, if you didn't catch that. biggrin
