[Experiment_227]

I like poems.. I'm not very good at them though. This isnt quite my most recent but, meh, given I'm useing an excerpt for my signature here I figured it would just be good manners to go ahead and post the whole thing.. Or something like that anyway. *shrugs*

.EyeS.

Secrets that we all must keep
Whispered anarchy
Restless sleep

Goats that run
Amongst the sheep
Find no fun
When peace may speak

Kept away from prying eyes
How I'll laugh
When we all die

Scent that burns
Diluted pride
Poisoned worlds
Negative slide

Still content ever to be
Tattered ether
Shackled free

Eyes sewn open
Still won't see
Arrogance blinds
Eternally

Claw and fang
Fur and hide
Speaking out
Unbroken pride

Storms protecting

Siblings defined

Shadows run behind our eyes

Shouldn't matter if anyone "likes" your work or not. this forum isn't here to garner approval and acceptance of posted works.

It is here for anyone who wants to share their poetry to be able to do so.

True enough, I merely wished to convey the basic message that I do not post my work in places it is not desired, that is all.

Another poem, just because. Its completed but has no name, I could never think of one and, besides, I kind of prefer leaving it as is - open to interpritation.

----------------------

Once with eyes
Still wrapped in dream
I saw things
I should not
Have seen

Shineing crystal
Living gems
Scales of
Muted midnight hue
In this world unequaled

Ancient Secret
Children of the Earths Cry

Once with eyes
Still wrapped in dream
I saw things
I should not
Have seen

Glimmering wings
Aspired heaven
Frozen will
Innocent yet ever sure
Beings not to be ignored

Ancient Secret
Children of the Silver Sky

Once with eyes
Still wrapped in dream
I saw things
I should not
Have seen

Flickering dancers
Unburning flesh
Forgotten kin
Who shalt forever thus remain
In all but merest earthly name

Ancient Secret
Children of the Rebels Eye

there's never any point to saying that you're no good at poetry. Poetry is only as good as how you read and interpret. Personally, I like them.

So it's wrong for people to state that they like someone's work?

People can give their opinions on other people's work so long as it doesn't turn into flaming or flame-baiting. O_o; Or that's what I think anyway. XD

he was saying that opinions are irrelevant. They are free to comment, but it's the poets' desire to share the poem that counts.

Thanks, Erk. It may be that Mac, himself, did not read my own rules additions, above. If he had, he probably wouldn't have made a comment like that.

Also, that kind of commentary belongs in a PM. Not in space reserved for critiques.
