Wow, this was her first poem yet I find it so beautiful...because, for some reason, it speaks the truth of what's happened to us females in our lives.....
@CRAWLiNGCELLULiTE don´t give up! I think as a little "poet" myself, you should not plan your poem that precisely! Just write whatever that comes to your head! A poem don´t need to rhyme, it can be bent and twisted in every way the poet wants it to be. The poem is like music, and painted-art, it shouldn´t be kept in the prison of rules and other peoples meanings..as long as you think it is good..then it is good. Write with your heart, not your head. And I am sure you will make it good enough :)
@CRAWLiNGCELLULiTE oh and think of what Emilie said: "It has to start somewhere" And remember..Emilie could have been sitting with this poems for hours, before she got it just like she wanted, and just perfect. My first poem wasn´t even a poem..at least I don´t think so..I never wrote it down, i just remembered it in my head. But it´s in Norwegian and it won´t rhyme in english. And I still think it´s silly, but you just have to show other people your "silly" poems, because they might love it! :)
@sistaspooky1013 yet as you look at the latest 50 years. most of us have became reproduction mashines and a virus to existance... not trying to improve, just trying to quench their thirst for lust, eating the sex-salade, saying it should live because it is right, but it is not. sometimes you just need to let it die, how hard it may be.
therefore we shall go wrong, and even more untill we die, and die, and die, and die.
I like this. Despite what anyone else says. It's simple. That's all that should be asked for, that's all that should be wanted. I think it's fine, not very fancy but hey, that's not important.

You guys. I'm an EA fan too. But seriously? I could've written this. It is honestly a terrible poem. Decent for a beginner, but..you guys are all saying this is amazing when it's not and that you could never compare to this when you sure as hell could. (If you can't I doubt you're any age above 10)
i k now she has far better poems than this but this one still has a nice style to it, though it's short it is still good and if you think that it's so terrible then why did you listen to it, you should share support not hate.
I forgot to point out, this was one of her FIRST POEMS. No wonder it's weaker than others. EA even points out at the end of this it's not great "far too you to know how to rhyme". You can't just expect her to pour out something great right away... it's the start of something. Not a great, outstanding start, but it's a start.
Well really it wasn't rude. Your opinion, I'm fine with that. Of course people are going to stand up for her, that's just the way music is. Or poems, in this case.
That is the 'guise' - this poem SHOULD be about feelings - but isntead she writes THOUGHTS
how could anyone understand her but emotionally intelligent people like you?
Could be she even did not understand herself while thinking where one is supposed to feel and not realizing these thoughts are but emotional expressions (fears, anger, hate) that have nothing to do with men or women but something very personal
If you were a man reading this for the first time - you'd feel and think like him
yeah, she has too much talent!! not fair lol, actually i shouldn't complain cause if she didnt we wouldn't be able to listen to her music and poems or read her book that is supposed to come out some time this year. hope it does
lol I'm already on the forum, i just don't really go on it that much, i 've suscribed to her blog on myspace which is pretty much the same things she posts in the forum, so i usual go onto the forum through her myspace :D
She has such a way with words. i love her

Ever since childhood I've been questioning the idea of bringing a child to life
Even considering adoption :)
She talks of feminism thought it may not necessarily be just men or males - females as well
people are so imperfect, yet they bring children to this world - and try to make it better
i guess it will NOT be better - just - people live with the natural cycle of nature as is
they can always kill themselves, or each other - and some of them do
the constant challange is to live

I suppose "decent for a beginner" flew over your head?
My issue was with everyone saying this poem was amazing when it isn't. =/
SageofAnime 2 years ago
Yeah, I get that. Just wasn't sure you knew if it's her first, lol. I still like it. Not amazing... but once again, she was just a begginer. ^_^
Sorry for any offense, wasn't trying to start anything. Ha.
RetroSimplicity 2 years ago
Haha, yeah, I caught that. xD
My little sister even said I was being too harsh....so I shouldn't have been so bitchy in the first place. =x
No problem at all, sorry for being rude. ^^;;

very true - as a child - peoples understanding of themselves and feelings is rather weak and immature
but they grow to learn
some of them
those who manage to ;)

A poem is about feelings. Not about how it is written...
Try to feel her and not just the words.
