Originally posted by lil bitchinessOh my God they do!!!!! The contrasting style to the single theme is just, overwhelms me. And I actually laughed (not from because it was bad) because it just tickled me to death!!!! Awesome pieces!
ohyes Both entries rock ohyescheerleadercome on people - enter!! cheerleader
Now where's the rest of you!!!
I like the "O"s and "eartherns" of that first one. I also enjoy its view-askew of 'joy'.
The second one is a little above my reading level, but it certainly looks pretty.
It's certainly a shame we are limited to two choices though, especially considering the number of personal poetry threads in this forum.
Remember people...It's not the winning that counts, it's the taking part!
Originally posted by Ya Krunk'd FlooI'm assuming you wrote the first one. I like to think I know you, so by submitting a poem that is unlike you, takes the spotlight away from you. But then again I could be wrong!!! Been known to happen.

Oddly enough, that first piece threw me off the beaten track when I had read it. The theme after all was "joy".
I thoroughly enjoyed the second piece, as at first it started off as something cynical and full of....hmm, hate's too strong a word, maybe disgust. But then goes on to all that is/could be wonderful about "joy"...
So far, I am very happy with two pieces. A complete gem!

One weird thing...Is the first line of 'Love's Happy State!' supposed to state 'the tormentor%u2019s hand'!?!?!?!?!??!?!
I'm referring to that percentage sign and the digits...
Originally posted by ColdfireI saw that also...I don't think it was meant to look like that. Kinda weird. yeah.
I was wondering about that too...

Originally posted by ColdfireIt is NOT a competition of sorts, dear!!!! Although a winner will be chosen, but it is....I feel where all the differing styles of one theme can be placed in one thread for all to enjoy!!! And yes the first two entrants has so far been a salacious treat to read (i've read both so far 10 times, and I shall read them again after this).
And I'm supposed to compete with THOSE?! 😱 Damn I'd better get my act together then lol 😛
And you...dear Cold can do just as good as any. You just have to believe you can!
And Ya Krunk'd....you are certainly a man with many sides...."Remember people...It's not the winning that counts, it's the taking part!"
No truer words has ever been eloquently uttered!

Nun, I wish I was as clever as to hide my shadow by bathing my whole self in darkness, but alas poor Yorick, I knew him well, Horatio, I am not.
Originally posted by ColdfireNot to worry. I'll hunt them down, and slowy slay them with vicious rhetoric!!!!
Well I'll remember that 🙂 Hope others are gonna enter this too...
