Forum Poets

[bloodedIrishman]

Hey, forum game time! Write a poem about the person who posted before you! You can tease them, but no personal attacks or things of that nature please.

Here are links to information on some forms of poetry:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballad
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epic_poetry
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elegy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limerick


For example:

A haiku is simple and quick to make. The haiku has three lines, in order of metrical phrases of five seven five. (It does not need to be about nature, as haiku is generally supposed to be.)

(1st line) The irish people (5 counts)
(2nd line) have always been hotblooded (7 counts)
(3rd line) just look at this guy (5 counts)

There once was an Irishman full of blood,
he drank too much liquor with his bud,
then went to hit up,
a lady already hooked up,
the punch he took wasn't a dud.

[Geoni]

I don't do restrictive poetry forms. So i'm going prose.

I don't know much about ThomPhoenix,
or why he's a Phoenix.
teases drinking and punching,
such violent topics,
So I'll
hug. 

[Sarras Volcae]

Rock brain at keyboard
The child of walls in luncheon
What the hell is this

[ThomPhoenix]

The taste of humans
Devouring flesh as if air
Beware of Sarras

[bloodedIrishman]

ThomPhoenix has a face like a cracked dish,
smellin' like a dead fish,
his rhyming wearies me,
bumming my chi.

You thought this thread was dead,
but I resurrected it as I burned ThomPhoenix
to a glorious heaven of balladry I have led
you. And to poetry hell I will send this lummox.

[Candy]

There's an Irishman, who makes me giggle
And he wants us to post in rhyme.
I'm not good at making funnybones tickle
Or writing poems sublime.
I'll give this a shot anyways
Since his posts always entertain.
The poem that I used to say
this hopefully didn't cause you pain.

[Sarras Volcae]

My eyes my eyes,
Meine Augen blutet stark!
I hope I said it right,
Now I only see dark!
Candy's poem has made me blind,
More blind actually,
Because I forgot,
That I'm blind already!
Lol.
That's sad.
Too bad.
 

[Geoni]

Brain removal
can hurt the eyes.
Sometimes I talk to a zombie
by the name of sarras.
"No comiste me cerebro!"
I exclaimed.
Then I recoiled into the corner,
and curled into a ball.

There once was a kran named Geoni
Although he writes poems he's phony
Because he can't rhyme
At this moment in time
Instead, he sounds rather moany

[LigH]

@ Geoni:

Your's about ThomPhoenix reminds me a bit on the poem about "The funnels" by Christian Morgenstern. Or the "Aesthetic weasel".

This made me want to read it, but I can't find it on the internet. :/

[Dracaeon]

Geoni the kran was felt crossed
No matter what the cost
He would find that poem
About which LigH had told 'im
And so the Web he accost

But his search was for naught
The poem that he sought
Was not on the Net
And so you can bet
That he came back here and thought

Christian Morgenstern: Die Trichter / Das ästhetische Wiesel (Galgenlieder, 1902)

Zwei Trichter wandeln durch die Nacht
durch ihres Rumpfs verengten Schacht
fließt weißes Mondlicht
still und heiter
auf ihren
Waldweg

Ein Wiesel
saß auf einem Kiesel
inmitten Bachgeriesel.
 
Wißt ihr,
weshalb?
 
Das Mondkalb
verriet es mir
im Stillen:
 
Das raffinier-
te Tier
tat’s um des Reimes Willen.

Ligh's posts are usually informative,
his ideas not-so evocative,
curiously inquisitive,
Knowledge is imperative,
he finds information restorative.

He might think he's a master,
But in this thread solely focused on rhyming I Am the rhyme-master.
