I tend not to write rhyming poetry.

(@soj)

ya telling me! but its one of the main parts of poetry. maybe change 'tend' to 'cant

you wont even have ago and who said it had to rhyme? do it any style want but nahh i dont think you can.

that pap you showed me in my inbox was 'ok' but yu aint as good as you think you are if you cant even do a couple rhyming paragraphs. or any kinda at all.

rhyming poetry is the most important kind..if you can get to the leval of doing more than 1 rhyme in a line its easy after that but you cant i guess.

"fuck off" right back at ya honey, now who cant take critisisem? lol you knickers so twisted up it aint real.

rapping and poetry is the same, only rapping is harder..coz with poems you just gotta talk pap, its got no story no rhythem its just using words in a silly way, like doing the dictionary backwards.

my last post at you wasant insulting..and now look at you? fuckin pathetic.. imma put all your PM's on facebook :p (dont worry i wont)
 
ffs hip-hop is poesy, it is rhyming verse in an age where the form is out of fashion a bit. End of the day a good rhyming poet can use the words and voice to describe a beat and say something. Thats poetry, voice as instrument. Your best rap artists do just that. You'd listen to them sans bass and and sans instrument, just like you would a poet.



that said I don't rhyme, more addicted to alliteration and assonance.

now let us consign beef to the dustbin of history and concentrate on making good verse.

:hmm:

take the olive branch you cunts, take it.

hip-hop/rap is harder than poetry IMO
 
false dichotomy imo, and entirely dependant on the individual. Chain yourself to rhming structure and have to work slightly harder to give the piece both meaning and meter. Drop the rhyme and you have to work twice as hard with elegance, brevity, meaning.

theres room in the world for both forms, I recon. Think hip-hop gets a lot of (sometimes valid) stick for being asocial in thematic content, money guns and bitches etc, but its a facile view to slate the lot based on that*- look at Jurrasic 5 or Tribe called Quest or Public Enemy

*not that I think anyone has here, am just doing a re-run of the row I had with my poetry lecturer five years ago.
 
"The whitey"

-----

the world spins and you're the axis
laughter brays; shame the target
though blurry
it stings through the haze
'till peals of chunder coat yer shaes
you're the entertainment now, a sin;
the price of trying to fit in

sterile, yet comforting
same old tropes different day

it's like friends but not

Have you noticed how I haven't once said anything negative about your writing?

Is it because I loved every word? No. Or is it because I'm not an ignorant bad-mannered little fuckwit? Yes.

Post up the critique meth - go on.

The funny man sat on the wall,
Playing with his willy.
With such a shake
His trouser snake
Was getting rather chilly.
Blow you buggers, blow!
Stop the thing from freezing.

Teasing, teasing, teasing...
 
of course your bourgeois version of the childrens rhyme has the borderline-nonce credited with what can only be described as a gargantuan penis, even after it was shown to the girl next door and truncated. Its a metaphor about the enormous sense of privilege your class has.
possibly :hmm:

yea you said you would do a critique that i wouldant like one bit.. thats kinda negative especially from somebody who cant rhyme one damn verse.

the strange part of all this is im asking you to insult the shit outta me in rhyme form and for some bloody reason you wont/cant do it.. so you stick to standerdinsults and youve been more insulting than me.

have i got permission to put ya fuckin poem up to critique? i wouldant put it anywhere you dont want it (except maybe facebook, topix, 4chan,totse,the hive, bluelight,legion and the rest of the internet lol im just messsin i aint gonna do that.. you need to chill and lol more... its a fuckin sport soj, its like boxing only your throwing verbal blows instead of physical blows and its massivly popular(just not on here lol)

bad mannord arrogant little fuck wit is more insult than i have done to you. i say you cant do a bloody paragraph and instead of just doing one with as much insult as you like you just get overly aggresive...your completaly mssing out the fuckin sport in this. you dont like free-verse or rhyme? you aint no poet then coz they 2 of the most important things. along with the wordplay.

im no much interested in stuf that dont rhyme coz it just reminds me of that twat on the mcdolalds add that was being thrown up in high rotation a couple years ago.

its harder to rhyme consistantly with long verses than it is to do what i see in yours. if you aint gonna rhyme its more like creative writing than poetry.

anyway you'll probably get all vile and tell me to fuck off again. how old are you soj? (curious)

Why would she want to?

Only this morning, you were raw furious and spitting with rage because people were insulting you. As in, full-on, bouncing-off-the-walls-and-ceilings ballistic. With threats of physical violence. And all kinds of allusions to all the information and muck you were gathering on the people who dared to insult you.

Now, because you've been pulled up for being aggressive towards someone who had originally offered to help, it's all a game, and the only way that anyone can be a good poet is to 'play your game,' to your rules, and insult you in rhyme - which is nothing like the poetry that Soj has posted. It's not the ethos of Soj's poetry, afaict; it's not the style; it doesn't reflect any of the content - not that I saw, at least. Which was emotionally engaged, reflective, and thought provoking.

Like, insulting you is not a simple thing, Meth! What's the best outcome? Someone 'wins' at insulting someone who's keen to point out he's mentally ill? Someone wins at picking you apart? At fucking you off? At putting you down?

I can fully understand why that might represent a poisoned chalice!

have i got permission to put ya fuckin poem up to critique?
If you do, you blow her anonymity. Soj's poems are also online. I don't know how much that matters to Soj; I know how much it'd matter to you, if someone blew your anonymity. And I know that last night, you were refusing to post up anything that you said had been sent to you, under any circumstances, because you were - apparently - desperately keen not to break the FAQs, under any circumstances, ever.

you need to chill and lol more... its a fuckin sport soj, its like boxing only your throwing verbal blows instead of physical blows and its massivly popular(just not on here lol)
Soj offered to provide you with a critique. From her angle. As someone who's won prizes for her poetry. Which is not the same kinda style as yours.

You, quickly, insulted her, for not getting back to you pretty much immediately.

The 'poetry' you're describing is just your take on 'poetry,' meth. If someone else doesn't buy into that - and it doesn't look as if Soj does - then having a go because they won't slate you (in what is, basically, a no-win game) just isn't on.

bad mannord arrogant little fuck wit is more insult than i have done to you.
tbf, in context, that struck me as an eminently reasonable description. You were being bad mannered. You were being arrogant. Perhaps 'little fuckwit' was open to more interpretation - but - in context, and given how utterly rude you were being after someone had offered to help, because things weren't delivered immediately / to your schedule - that doesn't strike me as an uncomplicated insult. Someone offered to help; you were a dick to them because they didn't respond as soon as you wanted them to.

you aint no poet then coz they 2 of the most important things. along with the wordplay.
Brain-clever isn't the same as heart-clever, Meth.

its harder to rhyme consistantly with long verses than it is to do what i see in yours. if you aint gonna rhyme its more like creative writing than poetry.
How long do you seriously think each of you takes over your poems?

It's not all about showing off, Meth. It's not all about rhyming. God only knows, it isn't all about rhyming.
 
Because out of its traditional bakery-based setting, it isn't as funny. "Is that a doughnut or a meringue? No, you're right enough, it's a doughnut".

It's worse because I am familiar with that joke already, but somehow thought dottie was making some kind of high level poetry reference that was above me :D
 
I'm going to continue to post poems about my daily events.

"The lost plectrum"

----

the plectrum mocks me with his absence
is he hiding?
peeking out from his new found sanctuary?

no sweet music for you, he mocks
or at least reduced attack on chords
but where is he?

he was here but just a moment past
and lacks the legs to stray too fast
or far, into the woodland grass
so camoflauge is his best chance

he's pretty good at that
