johnnyguitar Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 i think its an exellent peice of writing namahage you are very talented wtg So, even his supporters can't spell. What hope have we of a critical appraisal of the piece on its poetic merits? It's adolescent drivel. I am too sensitive for this world, no-one understands me and I rail at their insensitive disdain whilst retreating under my duvet to plan unspeakable revenge upon them and their shallow lives (whilst my folks pay for my education)...then I grow up (hopefully). Or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyguitar Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Indeed, I am not. I feel debased and ashamed. It has moved me to verse. My eyes are shattered by the shards of mirrors broken in the bathroom of my parent's condo Ghosts parade their sympathies around patterns of iridescent alchemy and I bleed...dripping along the blunted edge of the switchblade that I call life...and they call real life. My soul is tormented...by their souls. I look across the void and all I can see is my soul pursued by their souls but wait...a crowd is forming of my souls...and their souls... and now I am pursued by a bunch of our souls. I am in hell.

Obviously as adults we can look back at our teenage angst and wonder what the freak we were whining about, but we should never forget that it was deadly important to us at the time. There was a period when I wore nothing but black, refused to speak and listened to Tears for Fears' "The Hurting" over and over and over again. Seems silly now, but you couldn't tell me any different then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blind-fitter Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 also it looks like blindfitter doesnt want to go toe to teo with me on a such a daunting subject so how about we go for an easier one what color are my shoes Highly entertaining, I'm sure. As well as having a job and a large family to support, I have had to deal with the pressing matter of a couple of gallons of rain-water leaking into my daughter's bedroom- and fit in 7 hours of sleep- since this daunting challenge was mooted yesterday. You'll appreciate that any thoughts of tangling with such an intellectual heavyweight as yourself have been far from the forefront of my mind. You seem to be of the opinion that, because you are American and I a mere foreigner, any debate on the subject of American English would inevitably result in you crushing me like an insect. Your bravado is admirable, in spite of its foolishness. By way of analogy: Sid, my budgerigar speaks "budgie", of which I have but a minor grasp. I'm fairly confident that my 6 years experience of university-level academic study and research, coupled with whatever innate intelligence and reason I possess, would stand me in good stead, should our daily conversation turn to an intellectual discourse upon "budgerigar-speak", albeit he speaks the language better than I. There is a significant distinction between the instinctive use of one's native language and a genuine comprehension of how language and communication work: a point amply demonstrated by you and your poetry.

johnnyguitar Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 If Namahage Doesn't rhyme with Damage It Surely rhymes with Carnahage Which is another form of Damahage I think. If you spell it wrong. EJ Thribb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Maybe I'm speaking out of turn, but you know what? Along with everything else, I've been listened to an awful lot of ugliness over the past week or so (not here). Could we just give this a rest, please? It trully serves no purpose. I'm directing this to no one in particular, and everyone in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blind-fitter Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 I feel suitably chastised. However, I'd suggest that whatever has been said by one to another in this thread has been underpinned by a sense of fun, and shouldn't be taken too seriously.

Lucky Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 I completely agree b-f, I've smiled myself over a few comments(usually yours). We should not, however, forget that what is one's fun may be another's pain. I just think this bit has run it's course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
