The paper calls To tell a story Of rises and falls Gruesome and gory Subtle truths must be placed Within the fabric of the tale The fiction must be laced So the words do not become stale Give the illusions Of a perfect life To make the delusions Inseparable even by the sharpest knife Illustrate such things As gods hands Or the pain evil brings Even in foreign lands It can not be stopped Until the pen cries tears For it knows these words can not be topped Even in a lifetime of years >¶Øʆ< |

Great job, POA. I haven't seen you around Teen #4 much lately. I hope you keep posting because I always enjoy reading your work. Another job nicely done here. --Marie It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. |

Great poem! Two things though.... - the flow broke off a bit due to some lines having a small amount of syllables and others have much more. - the G in God is capitolized I'm not sure if you don't believe in God. If you don't, maybe that's why you didnt. Just informing. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

I'm sure that's really just a religious preference of you fellows, I don't see why anyone outside of such a belief system would have to capitalize "god" simply for the assumption that he's even speaking of the god you are both speaking of. "God" is just a word, it need not be capitalized in certain contexts. Another marvelous piece, Poet. ~Allan |

Allan, let me put it to you plain and simple.......What *I* said was this: IF he believes in God then it should be capitalized.... IF he doesn't then fine....I understand.... I was trying to understand WHY is wasn't capitalized. Ok yea I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |
