    Anis saved my life in more ways then I could ever explain.. I found him 2 years ago after some pretty bad stuffs had happened and he made me believe again.

    I randomly clicked on this link one night and sat for the next hour, re-watching and re-watching this with tears streaming down my face. And the pain started leaving my body like never before. Thank you, sir, for everything.

    Rock out like the mangoes are in season <3

    Such bs. what gives you the right to define poetry?

    Does it make you feel good to come here and spread your hatred towards others? Why not just let people love whatever poetry they want, art is individual. What it means to me might not be what it means to you. So stop being a pretentious idiot that brings nothing constructive to the discussion and just have some fucking love man....

    As "Timon Pumba" mentioned about you, you have a lot of hate. Anis brings happiness and hope. It's obvious you're upset that someone brings happiness and hope. And perhaps more so that you haven't been able to develop happiness. To call an entire nation stupid is ignorant and immature. I would like to know where you are from because "Americans" are from people all over the world. Don't have so much hate. If you have nothing nice to say, stay in your country.

    And you need to use your brain to understand my comment, which you seem to have trouble doing. I rightfully object to vulgarity in the context of poetry, because vulgarity is not poetry. But the rest of what he says is also a bunch of mumbo jumbo, spoken really fast. It is totally senseless and typically American. This is anything but poetry. It is shear verbal diarrhea. Americans are uncultured and stupid enough to regard it as poetry, because you don't know poetry.

    and you call Americans stupid. For one, maybe you lack the depth of thought needed to properly interpret Anis' poetry. Just because he says "Fuck" doesn't invalidate his words. "Fuck" is just a really strong word, and when used properly can help strengthen what you're saying, as shown in his poetry. Anis paints beautiful pictures with his poems, using metaphors in a way that few others can. He speaks from his heart, and you listen with your brain, which is why you have trouble understanding.

    Would you kindly rephrase into proper English, so I can have a dialogue with you. Your words sound too much like Anis' "poetry". I therefore can't make much sense out of it. Cheers.

    I must ask,why project so much hate? Incredibly so behind the words Anis spoke. Once in your life consider perhaps the grievance is the exact cause for hatred of people who live on this side of the rock. Playtime's over. Textbook projection, my friend. Not all those you meet in America are the same kind of monster the world has seen, as it is everywhere on our planet. May I ask a favor? Please, write and share a little nonshit, inspiring poetry for us, Bill Shakespeare. Stop avoiding evolution.

    "Fuck, fuck fuck, motherfucker, fuck". (a) Americans are stupid enough to call this shit poetry. (b) Americans are stupid enough to be "inspired" by this shit and claim it gives them "hope". Just goes to show how sick Americans are. This is an insult to poetry. Americans corrupt everything that is good in this world. I'm so glad I'm not American.
