MrsAngelic ~ I enjoyed Soldier Boy. A unique way of looking at things, and some original phrasing. Good job!

Thanks for all of you who are supporting of my work..it is in no way shallow, it's how I feel. I'm one of the least shallow people you will meet, I think of things in other ways then others, as a former sufferer of an eating disorder, I have overcome a lot of obstacles, it may not be healthy to do it, but it kept me from a lot of stress. I'm not a bitch nor do I feel threatened, I'm just angered by someone who can't take a hint, and I'm seriously wondering why I care about this man...a lot of men put women through shit and we continue to take it. But, I want to thank jwb...I"m glad that my poems could still stir emotion in you, if you don't like my work, don't read it, but it heals me and keeps me sane. We are judged on our appearance everyday, and we judge others on their appearance whether we want to admit it. I've been fairly unlucky in love, I don't care what others look like, it's just that I have so much anger sometimes that spewing insults makes me feel better...just yesterday in fact, i got called boring, not having any personality, and maybe without a future. But, my point in that poem was that I am in it for the long haul, that she has no idea, maybe my anger should have been directed at him, not her, but it was a natural reaction. sushi--how dare you use the term bitch! also...my email address is buffystar1700@yahoo.com...i look forward to hearing from you, kase...i've been in a personal prison lately, unable to escape...realize that we all share a kinship here...and we all have emotions, anger, and doubt..my poetry is confessional and true, no matter if you agree or not, we all feel this way from time to time...i'm sorry if i came off shallow, but you would have to be in my situation to truly know how it feels...any more comments...i haven't gotten these many comments forever...anyone wanna talk or ask questions...feel free...this site has kept me from going insane...i didn't write this to get a reaction...i wrote it to ease my reaction to her namely.
BK---I know that inner beauty exists..as a matter of fact, I don't know why I care...he has already chosen me...it's just that she doesn't seem to see it yet.
ladyinwaiting~Whoops I was reading the conversations on the board for the last two weeks and I didn't see your comment, I hope you didn't get the impression I wasn't replying to your comments on purpose I just didn't see them. Anyway, thank you. I've been reading your stuff too, I like what I've read so far. :-)
Take care

LadyinWaiting...thanks for the support...=)
Lost and Champagne...its not all about a person's outside appearance..i get that, and i adhere to that...the mean words were spoken in anger...if you look, i know what it's like to experience love, i've just experienced a lot more bad then good lately.
Hello fellow "Blenders"....Hope that you are all well.
I'm sitting here glancing out the window and just tired of seeing "WINTER"...cold, rain, overcast skys. I'm thinking of Spring time and Romance. Read the following excerpt from one of my poems, then close your eyes, and see where your thoughts take you:
"For just like a hungry humming bird on the first day of spring, I long to invade your flower garden and savor the taste of your sweet nectar….one flower at time, and ……ever so slowly…" Hope You Enjoyed! Richard E. Murphy
Mr. Murphy...
You call it sensual...I think it's seductive as well...

CryingShame58...call me Richard...I'm only 43. "Mr. Murphy" sounds like a fella who is 75 and a Sunday School Teacher. As for your comment, I must admit that when I was writing this short passage, I was in somewhat of a sensual mood...so you were right on target. It was an excerpt from a short Valentines Day poem that I wrote for Galla's contest. Well my dear lady, I hope that the short piece of writing took you somewhere special. It's amazing what the mind can do when you close your eyes and visualize something beautiful. Take Care...Richard
Richard...
hey, can i call you Rich? what about Richie? But if your prefer Richard...Richard it will be from now on...
Ah ha....only 43, just a babe...although, i am your elder, you may call me, Pam...I was wondering what kind of response I might get from you by calling you Mister...Seems you may have a good sense of humor as well as a sensual side...I enjoy reading the submissions more than submitting work, but yours is the first that I closed my eyes and visualized...thanks for that idea and passing it on....

Ladyinwaiting~ no problem, I'm glad you liked it! I really like your name, by the way.
I've been reading a lot of good stuff here lately.

Words can hurt, but being ignored can hurt and drive you mad....like in silent hate ...thanks for commenting on my stress relief...

hello to all.
I've been offline for a while. computer problems, you have
to watch what you delete.lol. Theres a lot of great poetry
on this site. I will try to get back to reading it.
I do think there is inner beauty. Remember, you can't tell
a book by it's cover. Thats about it .the_poet.

Ali I love the visuals
tj I just love it
Cryingshame-
Yes, your right. I now believe yelling or screaming is alot better than being ignored. At least when your screamed at, your presents is known, when your ignored your just a worthless bag of skin standing there.

Okay, I'm going to be kind of mean here, though I don't intend to be. My best friend is trying to write and dhe's not having much success. "I Like" is what she considers here best work, and compared ot he rest of her stuff, it is the best, though that's not saying a whole lot. an a few people please give her some honest feedback? I personally don't like the poem at all, but I don't want to hurt her feelings. I hope she doesn't read this. I love her to death, but her rhyme scheme doesn't work. Maybe it's just my preferences or just my personal taste. Am I wrong in saying that it's not that great? (She also told me that she thinks I'm jealous of her "writing talents") I hope I'm not asking too much of yall. Thanks.
I don't know if this really fits here at all, but I wanted to share it. Don't you sometimes wish life could still be this easy when it comes to relationships....
"Let's play like I am the princess and you are the prince, and I am stuck in a tower." (My four year old daughter loves Rapunzel...hehehe).
"No, I am going to be a power ranger". (Chrissy's eight year old son loves the power rangers....hehehe.
"Well, you have to be a PRINCE power ranger"

Ali -- A New Tapestry -- I like the cyclical nature, the way the pattern is repeated. Lyrical. Vivid. Astonishing.
