[quote]Hey, in my English class I just read Kubla Khan by Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

It's still debated what the hell it means, but it's a pretty darn good poem.[/quote]
Coleridge is fun. That poem was inspired by an opium dream. According to legend, he wasn't done there, but he got interrupted and then forgot the rest of his hallucination.

DeadReligion 01-22-2006 08:01 PM

Just for conversation's sake, anyone here like Tiger Army?

ITRIEDVOODOOONCE 01-22-2006 08:06 PM

Anyhow, Say anything is quite interesting, indeed.

No, I don't listen to tiger army, but I've read it's pretty decent punk.

And yes, I'm still internetless. ugh.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 01-23-2006 03:22 PM

I think this new mutant! character is a ginormous moron.

Anybody want to send me some Joshua Fit for Battle over AIM?

DeadReligion 01-24-2006 02:17 AM

I believe it's called psychobilly, but, whatever...labels...though, I like sorting my sh[I]i[/I]t out...its all way too...labeled. Anyway, it seems to me like something people on here might enjoy, so I was wondering.

Probably I only understood half of that sentence. :p

That's really strange, after the first few lines I told myself that it sounds like this guy was on opium. It was a great poem though.

What poets or types of poetry are you guys mainly into?

DeadReligion 01-24-2006 08:08 PM

I enjoy Countee Cullen, Sylvia Plath and Poe quite a bit.

slack 01-24-2006 08:14 PM

Anne Sexton's poetry is more accessible than Plath's, I think, but I like both. Tulips is one of my favorite poems ever.

deathscreamingsheep 01-25-2006 02:09 PM

Truth.

I also love good 'ole Shakespeare, but I prefer his plays and poetic speeches (the Iambic Pentameter ones) than his actual poems.

Gypsy Campervan 01-25-2006 02:45 PM

Shakespeare, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Byron, Shelly, Keats, WB Yeats, James Joyce, Robert Browning and T.S. Elliot. One poet I hate: Carol Ann Duffy.

deathscreamingsheep 01-25-2006 03:01 PM

I'm not so much of a fan of Byron or really that many Romantics. I like them, but only in short doses.

Gypsy Campervan 01-25-2006 03:09 PM

Anyone heard of Federico Garcia Lorca?

Nightvision 01-25-2006 03:12 PM

Ah man, I've been looking for an in-road to this conversation for days now, and I'm just so out of my depth it's untrue.

*doesn't really enjoy poetry*

Interstate 01-25-2006 04:46 PM

[I]The Whitsun Weddings[/I] by Philip Larkin I think is the only collection of poems (so far, I don't really read that much poetry) I can relate to in any real way.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 01-25-2006 04:57 PM

Allow me Jason, allow me. Jack Prelutsky is my favorite poet, ever. Better than all those dead losers. Anyone who wants to disagree with me, be warned: You're an idiot.

Nightvision 01-25-2006 05:08 PM

I'm determined to find a poet whose work I enjoy by the end of this shift... (9 hours left... *sigh*) I shall start googling shortly.

DeadReligion 01-25-2006 06:26 PM

Lol, APS and Jason. Heh, good ol' Keats, I like his stuff. Also, I can't stand Shakespeare. I hate all his writing with a fiery passion. Well, with the one expception of Macbeth.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 01-25-2006 07:28 PM

Jason, I was just joking with that post. I thought everyone knew he was just a hack of a children's poet? Shell Silverstein is where it's at.

Nightvision 01-25-2006 07:31 PM

Ohhhh... I get jokes. :upset:

(Although that was a rather effective method of displaying the level of my poetic ignorance... :-\ )

A_Perfect_Sonnet 01-25-2006 07:39 PM

I only know who he is because when I was younger, I listened to him every night before I went to bed. His voices is soothing.

DeadReligion 01-27-2006 11:40 AM

Lol. Also I think you meant "his voice is soothing", APS.

drumass04 01-27-2006 01:08 PM

Hey everyone,

I'm back to crit your asses into the next millenium. Unfortunately writing is still beyond me, but I'll just crit you all and make you feel really guilty so when I do start writing again you'll all crit me :p

Anyway, life's looking up again. Girlfriend's awesome, mum's getting re-married, and I have played drums 8 hours in the past 36 hours, t'is all good!!

Peace,
Tim

DeadReligion 01-27-2006 06:07 PM

Yay, Timmy's back! BTW, Tim, what's your sn?

drumass04 01-28-2006 10:01 AM

sn?

if you mean my msn; [email]drumass04@hotmail.com[/email]
if you mean my surname; Peacock

Right I'm going to find some lyrics to crit. I looked last night, and it seems as if the quality has gone downhill about 10miles in 2 weeks :(

But nevermind, I enjoy crit'in!

Tim
