Slam Poetry
"Loner - to be alone" by Mike (me) 3/11
*Writer note, this poem is a slam poem. Slam poetry is type of rhythmic poetry with a hip hop flavor. It is usually spoken and seldom read. To understand the true effects of this poem I have placed tone keys before each sentence. A s for a slow, soft, and at times sad voice. And a f for a loud, fast paced and at times angry voice. There are also words indented "" to show that the word is stressed. This poem was a poem that I entered in a slam poetry contest awhile ago.*
S: Do you know what it is like to be "alone"?
F: To feel isolated by all, wanted by none, and cared by only the air.
S: Do you know that ? ... "the feeling of a loner".
S: Wikipedia defines loner as a "label"...
F: A label for a person who avoids or is avoided by human interaction.
S: It "also" goes on to read it as a negative label.
F: For "it" believes that humans are kind, natural, social, chatty beings.
S: And those who do not participate are "unique" creatures.
S: But then it contradicts itself and says... " that the loner may take self pride".
F: Pride in their behavior towards others. Pride to be an individual.
S: Pride to be a loner... That is what the dictionary says.
F: A collection of lifeless, touchless, loveless pieces of paper made by the inaccuracy of man.
S: So does it truthfully know to be alone?.
F: Does it suffer when someone is in pain? , Does it show empathy when someon grieves?
S: Does it feel emotion when "you" cry? ... So it does not know.
F: Then again who does know more of a loner than an actual loner?
S: Maybe another empathetic loner? Do you know them?
F: This is a contradiction. For if you are a loner, then "NObody" knows you.
S: So how can anyone understand a loner? Do you have to become alone? Can your heart take that?
F: To some this seems impossible. To others improbable.
S: But to them a desire... So will you feel their desire?...
F: To teach them kindness, to teach them to be natural, to teach them to be social, and most of all to teach them "happiness"?
S: For if you show them this. You can do what "was" impossible... and thats to turn the once loner... into the now "friend".

Yes it is very good ^_^ I dont write poems but statments like:
"We create light so we can always see,
but even if its day we still are blind.
Blind to the world,
Blind and we do anything about it."
does this still count as a poem?
if no can i still post them here?
