Yeah I thought so! :p

I got a message from a girl I've not spoken to in ages. I'd left her a comment so I went round all my friends seeing who else I'd spoken to. That's how I found you.

I'm a bit teed off, as I think my pirate poem was on an old computer that got thrown away, and I thus no longer have a copy off, which pisses me RIGHT off :angry:

GurS 06-26-2006 04:27 PM

Does anyone want to read my pirate poem? i thought i lost it, but found the original hand-written version, and just typed it up. If I post it, can you guys crit as harshly as possible plz?

Atomic Rain 06-26-2006 04:27 PM

PAJJ 06-26-2006 04:28 PM

oui i want to hear it, especially if it's full of jokes like why are pirates called pirates? because they arrrrrrrrr, quality

GurS 06-26-2006 04:29 PM

It's imaginatively called "I wish I was a pirate". Please be as harsh as possible - I want to be a writer, and it helps getting use to really harsh criticisms as early on as possible :)

I wish I was a pirate

I wish I was a pirate,
Sailin’ on a pirate ship,
A bandana tied around me ‘ead
An’ a cutlass at me ‘ip.
A parrot on me shoulder
An’ a knotty-oaken peg
Servin’ as a substitute
For what was once a leg
An eyepatch made of tough’nd leather,
A shirt thass ‘alf torn off,
A hook in place of an ‘and
To top the outfit off.

I’d sail the seas an’ oceans
With my trust-worthy crew
‘Oistin’ up the Jolly Roger
As we sail ‘cross the blue.
I’d steer the ship with the giant wheel,
Or be lookout from the Crow’s Nest,
Standin’ boldly at the stern
Or be poilishin’ the treasure chest.
I’d clamber up the riggin’
Like a monkey ina tree,
Or drift to sleep in me ‘ammock,
Content with a life of piratrey.

I’d converse in pirate lingo:
“A-har, me mateys, avast!”
Or bellow, “Land Ahoy!”
From the nest perched a-top the mast.
Readin’ faded treasure maps
Where X marks the spot,
And row out to distant islands
Once we’ve let the anchor drop.
I’d polish all the cannons,
I’d stack all the cannon balls,
I’d peel potatoes in the galley
An’ I’d always swab the ‘alls.

If another ship would come along
We’d swing unto its deck,
And if the crew is sleepin’,
Then we’ll slit ‘em ‘cross the neck.
We’d pilage loot and plunder,
We’d cut ‘em down in swathes.
We’d rape and we’d murder,
We’d be terror of the waves.
We’d be violent as any pirate was,
We’d be violent as can be –
‘Ang about, on second thoughts,
A pirate’s life ain’t for me.

last line doesn't flow, rest of it is absolutely 10/10

[QUOTE=Atomic Rain]last line doesn't flow, rest of it is absolutely 10/10[/QUOTE]

really? I dunno, personally I find it flows, but I probably read it weirdly in order to make it scan :P

but be meaner! :angry:

Back to square one...

Feels good.

PAJJ 06-26-2006 04:57 PM

Haha, that was pretty good gur, some of the lines didn't seem to flow, but that's probably just me, it might be cool if it ended without the " A pirate’s life ain’t for me." just because i've seen so many that do that at the end, but for what you were going for i can't really be faulted.

PAJJ 06-26-2006 05:01 PM

I didn't want to come off as someone who indulges rape fantasies :upset:

Basically, it's my attempt at some dark comedy. The first three stanzas could be from a generic children's poem - the last one's meant to be a nasty twist. But not twisty enough, I fear :(

PAJJ 06-26-2006 05:24 PM

haha good point about the rape, i just liked how most of it is all twee then it becomes dark and sinister, the moment kind of got taken away at the end, but that's probably just because i'm a bit twisted.

GurS 06-26-2006 05:30 PM

I think I may 'write' a second version... basically, same poem with a different last two lines :P

If I ever make it as a poet, the second version could be like an 'outtake', dvd style :p

GurS 06-26-2006 05:33 PM

Alternate last lines:

We’d be violent as any pirate was,
We’d be violent as can be –
A pirate’s life of murd’rin’ theft
Will fill me ‘eart with glee.

Evil :D
