This will be one of my few poems I post up from now on. I have realized a trend in replying to everybody elses poetry BUT mine. So I have decided to replenish a furmer base of replies to all of YOUR poems and then see what flows on from that to mine.


The Limit of the Unlimited:


Thinking thoughts that make no sense.
My mind is a field that has no fence.
I'm treading this world lacking a map and a cane.
It's all a part of avoiding vain.

Things that are, but never were.
Things that can't, and cannot cure.
It's all the will, and the living way.
It's all that's happened throughout my day.

I'm but a man who's lost in self
Like a drinking cup on a thick plate shelf,
And in that sense I learn to see
What I will or will not be.

So in the end my mind goes blank.
I'm left alone while walking a plank.
Here to stay and be thought a fool.
Alone in my mind to forever rule.






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

Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see.

Dopey~~~This was really good...I liked it...What are you trying to say in the top part before the poem???Are you saying that you reply to all the other poems but get no replies to yours???If you are then look at my profile...I have over 1500 replies...And only about 90 of my original work posted...

there is a trend..it is true, im sorry if i havent been around your poems in a while, im trying to search on each person and try to reply to their older poems that i havent replied to and i haven't done that on you.  But this is very true.

with regards to your poem...i don't know, but i feel a lonely person writing this one.  i maybe wrong, but that's the sense that i get from it.  like there is this anger in you from either being left alone or for just keeping yourself to your own.  great work

hey Dopey..believe me i know what you're talking about when you say you don't get many replies to your poems...well this was great ofcourse and as you are trying to understand my poems more i have doing my best on yours...it's good that you're posting only 1  a day man...

My Heart is broke,
but i have some glue.
Help me inhale,
and mend it with you.
We'll float around,
and hang out on clouds.
Then we'll come down,

great poem homeboy
I enjoyed reading it
don't get mad when people don't respond to your poetry, sometimes they don't respond to mine.
