Attention! Young Poets.

I'm compiling poems written by young people (under 55 years old) into a book to hopefully have it illustrated and published, and would like you to contribute. If you have a poem you have written that you'd like to get out in the world, please share it here, or link the appropriate webpage if already posted online. By sharing, you agree to have your work publicly seen under either your real name, a pseudonym, or anonymity, whichever you prefer. Poem entries are to be submitted on the boards as thus: • Title at the top, in bold. • Name/pseudonym of poet in italics; this cannot be substituted by a username used for any gameplay or social networking site. You may elect to appear anonymous. •The poem in question, with verses distinguished via paragraphing. •A description of the poem, mainly its theme and its background. •Suggestions for the illustrator when illustrating your poem. NOTE: Poems must be at least 3 lines long, such as of a haiku. Hope to have zero replies!

      If it's kind of long, should I post it here or send a private message?

        • Out of curiosity, why does the writer have to be under 55 years old?

            [b]Inferno Sonnet III: The Dying Dream[/b] There once was a 🌹 that was red Wandering alone, for its violet was dead. On two roads diverging It considered submerging Till a raven dropped a ❤️ in its head. - Robert Allan Dickinson It's a commentary on the duality of man and the inner social workings of human civilizations throughout time. If there were to be any illustrations included to represent this work, I would prefer it to be an amorphous blob that just ever so slightly represents a human face and an ocean 🌊.

            [i][b]my life[/b][/i] Whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather, he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank just outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out and break their grip on Freehold.

              Roses Roses are red But don't Focus on the color Because over time it becomes duller Stop and smell them instead Because multiple senses make a better memory Than the idea of its beauty thats only temporary Your life is short But with a little effort You will make it last long With your viewpoint, not if your strong Don't view the world, experience it Because you have 5 seances, not a tiny bit Don't die not having a clue Now for violets Whom are blue... If you do use it, just put my name as anonymous please But draw a rose in white and black if you put a illustration I wrote this with how I view the world around me in mind

Complicated decision Insert one to start the mission Every coin used dont matter We got more cooking up in the batter We got em climbing up the ladder Without knowing Whats up there to be showing In the first place These pawns we can lace Strategically place But not give so much crucial info away If they know too much Thats a shame Erase their lives and claim it as terrorist game Make sure prints come off with an acid rain We are protecting our people As we kill others that we name as sheeple For the people it aint fair But someones gotta take the world outta hell As we supposedly spoke in our fairy tales Get paid for being played Cause we need numbers to send away U have until may When u graduate To gives us ur soul to be listed As a trooper in our state Ur fate is pretty clear U either live to keep secrets Or have your death sentence here

              • Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb In the shape of an "L" on her forehead Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running Didn't make sense not to live for fun Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb So much to do, so much to see So what's wrong with taking the back streets? You'll never know if you don't go You'll never shine if you don't glow Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid And all that glitters is gold Only shooting stars break the mold It's a cool place and they say it gets colder You're bundled up now, wait till you get older But the meteor men beg to differ Judging by the hole in the satellite picture The ice we skate is getting pretty thin The water's getting warm so you might as well swim My world's on fire, how about yours? That's the way I like it and I never get bored Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid All that glitters is gold Only shooting stars break the mold Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show, on get paid And all that glitters is gold Only shooting stars Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas? I need to get myself away from this place I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself And we could all use a little change Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running Didn't make sense not to live for fun Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb So much to do, so much to see So what's wrong with taking the back streets? You'll never know if you don't go (go!) You'll never shine if you don't glow Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid And all that glitters is gold Only shooting stars break the mold And all that glitters is gold Only shooting stars break the mold

                  • I just wrote this today [quote]*To the tune of a country folk song Driving down a dirt road Honking and transient hobos, a voice came over the CB askin for me Said her name was Meme, She couldn't wait to see me Sounded like an angle come to earth (come to earth) But when I went to see her, Damn you should have seen her Twice as tall as me three times the girth Ohhhh yes my fat baby loves to eat (loves to eat) She's gotta a Buddha belly, Jiggles like grape jelly, Her bosom hangs down to the earth, (to the earth) I took her back to my house, I wanted to make her my spouse But first my fat baby has to eat (has to eat) Smoke some grass and get high Eat a lot of chick pies Her munchies are out of control She rips off my fridge door Eating more food is her goal I should have just paid for that wh**e (for the wh**e) Now she's looking at me, I'm so scared I have to pee She reaching for the butchers knife She's turning out to be an awful wife I fear the end is near for me (near for me) Ohhhh yes my fat baby loves to eat (loves to eat)[/quote]

                    • Well, well, well. Let's see what the cat dragged in today.      [quote]I'm compiling poems written by young people (under 55 years old)[/quote] A little prejudiced mixed in with some bigotry. I can hardly wait til you're 55 years over the hill. By the way how do you plan to enforce this? Going to check everyone's ID are you? lol. I don't think you really have anything to worry about. By the looks of what's on this forum lately, I would say the average age is about 13. Yawn...  [quote]hopefully have it illustrated and published[/quote] Because... You have nothing better to do with your important life? Oh, and let's count. One two three four five six. Six! We have 6 rules! If you include the age discrimination, that makes 7! Shish, you're like an old testament god. Lots of rules no mercy. And let's see, what else. [quote]Hope to have zero replies![/quote] And we have sarcasm masquerading as dishonesty. LOL! Coming from you, that "is funny." Can you just imagine if you really did have zero replies! I bet that's a scary thought. Something to "wonder" about, a? Well... At least you're bringing something of substance to what has been a wasteland lately. All that being said... F your rules! Let's see if you can figure out what this is. Or are ya jus trollin ta see if ya kin set some hooks? [quote]i ee o ae i eiie auae a ea sk t trnscnd ths rstrctv lngg by ny mns[/quote] And this one is just for you. [b]To endow my empress[/b] I live for the hunt... To be on the loose... To set upon my prey... 76 prayple I claimed... O to feed my inner animal! I am a human animal... I am a human being... O to feed my humanity! My prize... My offering... To be laid at your feet...
