Opposite Fakes:

The female oddities.
The scale is tipped.
The fountain of youth.
I bend to sip.

The rotten food.
The rich, old man.
Beware his wrinkles,
And the brown crusted fan.

Run from emotion.
Your chariot awaits.
There's nothing to fear,
And nothing to hate.

The misinterpretation.
The smile on your face.
The couple gets close
With a fake embrace.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

This was a really good poem, a bit hard to comprehend but you really have an awesome imagination!

I don't think I understand this one at all. The third stanza kind of threw me off. Maybe you could help me a little?

Dopey, an interesting read that I was able to understand in my own point of view...but not your own. I guess that's the significance of poetry though. Love to see more...

Wow this was so good! It's sort of a mystery to me, though. *L* But I liked it! Keep it up!

This poem, i must admit, would be very confusing for all of you. See, i at times write in this way that NOBODY could understand the poem except for me. Im sure, for the most part, you got the main idea and theme of the poem, but i like to leave a LOT of gaps in the poem so the reader can interpret whatever they see fit. This poem DOES have meaning, duh.......some deep.....some just in disguise in symbolism that only I know of. So anyway, glad you liked!

Hey this is really good, it makes you think..... A LOT!! I don't think most people understand people's poems as much as the author does....I guess it just goes that way. Keep it up

This is incredible. It seems like it would take an incomprehensible amount of time to create, and yet I get the feeling it comes naturally to you. Very impressive, and I agree with your tendency to let the reader draw their own conclusions, the mystery adds to the beauty of the poem. Ciao!

This was good...and even though I have my own ideas about this that might not be true...it's good to think that someone else's poem can have a meaning for you...

I liked it a lot.
