Great poems on I love you thread. |

(OP) 12/08/2005 10:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | this will give you a idea of what Iエm looking for some of my favorite poems by Antler Pretending to be Dead How many boys who loved playing army, Who loved pretending to be shot tumbling down summer hills, Who loved pretending to be dead as their bestfriend checked to make sure, Or who loved pretending to deliver their last-words soliloquy wincing in imagined pain or lost and dreamy, Find themselves years later trapped on the battlefield Hearing the voices of enemy soldiers Searching for corpses to mutilate or wounded to torture to death? What man remembers those idyllic boyhood days then As he lies still as possible Trying not even to breathe, hoping beyond hope the enemy will pass him by, Knowing if heエs discovered theyエll cut off his cock and balls and stuff them in his screaming mouth. And then, before cutting off his head, disembowel him before his eyes? Ah, thousands of boys and men have met this end, Millions perhaps by now, so many people so many wars. Do they go to a special heaven set aside for all who die like this? Restored to the bodies they had, The memory erased of that insane end to the story of their lives? Do they still get a chance to play army with joy And pretend to be shot and pretend to die After they meet this end? Do they still get to thrill in pretending to be dead after they die? After this hideous inhuman end will they laugh and wrestle their bestfriend again? ________________________________________________ Draft-Dodgers vs. Poetry Dodgers Rather than fulfilling their military obligation, fulfilling their poetry obligation-- After all, whatエs more fulfilling, learning how to kill or love? Those who become soldiers are evading the Poetry Service-- dodging the Poetry Draft. Isnエt it their duty to their Country more to become a poet than a brainwashed murder robot? When the young contemplate what branch of the Service to join, They should know they can contemplate joining Poetry, That Poetry is a Service that serves the realization of Utopia more than becoming skilled at killing. Too long it was thought the young were needed to go to war, Now the young are needed to go to peace. Now the young are needed to go to poetry. |

(OP) 12/08/2005 10:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Playground I only turned my back for a moment, but I heard the pop. Something happened. Somebody is hurt. They are both bleeding. Who started this? Please stop crying. Who hit who? Who started this? "Itエs HIS fault" each of them says. "Heエs bad" each of them says. Then they both start crying. Who started this? What can I do? Perhaps I should separate them. Perhaps I can find someone who was there. Someone who saw something. Perhaps I can punish them both. Perhaps I should just ignore them. Or perhaps I should just drop a bomb on the whole playground. ________________________________ Title idea..... Ah to be dust again |
