Haha I always look forward to your critiques. I dunno i just want ot have a conversation about my poems - I have no avid poetry fans in my watchlist! It's frustrating

Phil is a friend of mine who said poems that don't rhyme are 'lazy' and I got offended. Easy enough story, eh?

Which makes a talent for good rhyming poetry even more admirable, if you ask me.
Most people think rhyming makes a poem and they're seriously idiotic for it.
No problem. I speak truth.

If you saw a man drowning and you could either save him or photograph the event...what kind of film would you use?

One photo out of focus is a mistake, ten photos out of focus is an experimentation, one hundred photos out of focus is a style.

I know, I miss being on DA all day.

Everytime I come back your always just as active as when I left. Natural born artist

You need to fill me in. Hows life been treating you baby girl? Still taking writing classes in school?

My reply failed to send I think so just fill me in on what you've been up to. I havent caught up with you in so long I'm pretty far behind now baby girl. You still taking writing classes in school? You teaching them yet? You might as well.

Ever notice how much cold green tea from the tea bags taste like sweaty sock? Its.. normal you know... to know what sock taste like and all. Yeah

Well...good! I consider myself an avid poetry fan, even if I do not spend a lot of time on either your site or others. If I can ameliorate your frustrations, I will have fulfilled my goal.

As for Phil, if I were more pro-active in taking actions against ignorance, I would attempt to tell him off myself. And yes, a very simple story. Thank you for that.

Smiling to me, oh boy what can I do?
I just can say, "Salaam!"

Hahaha, cold tea is just wrong period, nevermind green tea, which needs a complicated array of outside sources to taste good anyway.

Life is interesting right now. A debriefing!: still in love with my ex-girlfriend, have a new boyfriend who is mucho amazing and who I love many muchly. **nod nod** This brings up complicated emotions and whatnot and stress ensues. Rough summer but I'm happy a lot more now. Still in poetry/writing classes, I'm taking an AP test in May I believed to get into an Honors Composition Writing + Lit class, etc. Nothing all that exciting I'm afraid. =]

I'm hardly on dA anymore either, truthfully; I'll check once or twice a day and whenever I update this or ~the-passenger-seat I can be on for hours but man we used to be back and forth all day, you're right. Fuck getting lives man, dA is where it's at.

Tell me what's new, darling. Tell me something happy. Tell me something.

I'm glad to hear your still in writing classes. Are those classes even a challenge for you anymore?
The composition/lit class sounds fun.

Sounds like your love life has been pretty active. I can imagin why though. Every time I go away for a while and sign back on your portrait photos are more beautiful than the last ones. Love is the hardest thing in the world though Ivy. I broke up with my girl friend of about 2 years about a month ago. It was a big mistake and I payed for it (still am). It put me in a place I never thought I'de be in and now can't really get out of but thats a long story. Plan on hearing it when I get more time though Ivy becuase theres some things to be learned for my mistakes.

Yeah Ivy.. me and you could fill a phone book talking about our ''complicated emotions''. lol

I hope your boy friend is treating you as good as you deserve. Tell him if he doesnt theres a guy in maryland that will break his thumbs.


Nothing to exciting here. I've been working and recovering from my break up the best I can. Unfortunantly I havent really been keeping out of trouble and I don't have anyone to blame that on but myself but thats another long story.

Its great hearing from you Ivy. I wish there was an easier way to keep in touch but DA is simple enough for me I guess. I won't let it go as long as I did last time though. I missed you pal. Good luck with everything. Make sure you keep me updated baby girl. No more silence.

....

You crazy British people.

I'd like to take a moment to say that I just finished a huge cup of green tea and tossed the last few swallows because they were cold and ew. Irony?!

The poetry writing class I'm in right now seriously bores me; I'm NOT by ANY means a racist person but seriously all my classmates online are black and seriously, seriously only care about their families, God, and cornbread/fried chicken. I love cornbread as much as anyone else but come on; every assignment doesn't need it in there. Everyone thinks I'm a Satanist bitch because I believe in nothing and Existentialism has nothing on my pessimism. People are lame.

I remember hearing about your girlfriend off and on, yes. Break ups are just... christ, two years is a long time. If you ever need to or want to or anything, you know how to reach me. I'd like to hear what happened. I like to listen.

I'll make sure my boyfriend gets that message, haha. But I don't deserve an inch of him and he's waaay too good to me.

Trouble is no fun, man, we must have a chat. Note me when you get that chance?

I agree. No more silence. Promise me?
