Note: DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE VERY SENSITIVE TO YOUR BAD GRAMMAR AND/OR POETRY BEING INSULTED. If you continue anyway, tough luck. So I thought it'd been decided to discourage poetry in blogs? Not that I mind it occasionally, but five badly written poems in a row is a little extreme. Again, we all know that while I'm picky about my own grammar, I'm usually pretty understanding of others'. Let's not forget (I love you) Stevo's once beyond-atrocious grammar back in the day. Now, it's just atrocious. But still understandable and it's not like he TRIES to be a writer. He doesn't go around posting crap like 'your the one who makes me keep writeing/ about way you broke me heart/ cut me down to little pieces/ tore my feeling all apart!!' In fact, I have the distinct feeling Stevo would laugh at such emo dribble. Not that I'm saying my poetry is the be-all-end-all, but come on! If you're going to go so far as to COPYRIGHT crap, make sure it's at least good enough that people will WANT to steal it. And post it somewhere it's not an eyesore or annoyance. We have a poetry section for a reason. Send your crap there and on the chance that it's approved, we can all at least ignore it when we jump on the front page, not seeing pathetically cliche titles with little emote-frowning faces. To reiterate, there is no shame in being weak in writing. Not everyone can have impeccable grammar/spelling/vocabulary/composition, just like not everyone can calculate sums in their head or sing an aria (or on key at all, for that matter) or even chew gum and walk at the same time. That's right, we're all different. But please don't try being an opera singer if your voice cracks during, "Mary Had a Little Lamb"-- you're just hurting yourself and everyone around you. By the way, if you steal that GENIUS verse above (Your the one who makes me keep writing about way you broke me heart cut me down to little pieces tore my feeling all apart!!) I will hunt you down and laugh my ass off at how pathetic you are. Yes, I am that much of a bitch.
