    Ugh. I'm not the best poet out there, nor am I the worst. But I put all I can into my poems. I really think of every word, every line break, every association. Sometimes I don't find the best way to say what I have to say. Sometimes I think I do.   I try.   Which means I really consider poetry an art. Which means I really want to do well and touch people, but I want to improve. I want my poetry to get read. & I only value honest opinions. I value a negative, but honest comment over a positive one that sounds like those rosy-glass cliche things you tell everyone so that you protect their mimosa of an ego and hopefully get on their good side.   Granted, I won't lie; I like positive feedback more than negative feedback. It makes me feel better about myself ... if honest.    There are some people on here whom I know to be

  • women
    women are hard to understand how do you know what women are the right one for you? Do they look at you as sombody you love or are they after your money? Why do they always have to be right knowing deep down there wrong? Why do they confuse men playing games with our hearts? (which is 100% wrong no matter who you are) and why do they want to be spoiled or vise versa spoil us? i have to know the answers to these questions regardless if there's somthing new in the women rulebook i just need my question answered cause to me there friends that's how i see them dating and realtionships sorry but i just can't take the heartace anymore.

  • I know this is a poetry site, but...
    I am heading up a project of my own creation called "How to Write a Book in 100 Days". Basically it will serve two purposes: 1] All the participants will successfully complete the manuscript for a novel in a 100 day period. 2] Participants will contribute video blogs, be in video interviews, and other forms of progress-tracking during the 100 days. Once the project is over, the videos will be compiled and turned into a master video file. Having said that... would anyone potentially be interested? The 100 days isn't set to start until April 1, so you have a little while to think it over. But I personally believe it'll be an awesome experience, and if nothing else, good writing practice. So yeah. Comment if you're interested/want more information/etc.
