Why do i have to prove myself to you? I DON'T!! i write about what i want, when i want, and it'll sound however i want it to sound. i write what i write cus it's what i feel if you don't like it then don't read it simple as that! ok people this is just a little rant so i can let my frustration out because there are some people here who think being disrespectfull and hurting people is the right way to critisize. |

Interesting rant...It would have been a lot stronger had you put some more detail into it. ~M Imagination=nostalgia for the past, the absent; it is the liquid solution in which art develops the snapshots of reality. |

isn't someone being a little hypocritical? I was also only "speaking my mind" and I wasn't disrespectul to you, I was honest. |

Master: It's definetly not a battle worth fighting. Casey If all you want is emotion, go down to walmart, buy yourself a diary and hide it in a drawer where no one can see... |

I can relate to your frustration. As a teenager (yeah I remember) the ego is fragile. Even through the screams you can read it in your work. Why do i have to prove myself to you? I DON'T!! The important phrase in this is "I DON'T. I know that you become enraged by the judgements passed by others. But there will always be people in this world that will judge you. You have to look inside yourself, and if what you see makes you comfortable with the person you are, then [edited by Administrator] everyone else. No one is forcing anyone in this place to open your folder and read. I applaud your strength. I would just like to say that I think you should spend more time releasing your creativity, instead of releasing your anger. (not meant to be a critique in any way) In truth, what defines us is our poetry. [This message has been edited by Sunshine (08-12-2002 02:59 PM).] |

You're right, Casey. I'll be quiet now. Robin, good luck with your writing. |

This is an extremely raw and powerful poem, you have a very simple message and one that I like, no one should be told that there poetry/prose is not good enough, after all it is all a matter of taste and interpretation. A very good write Robin, thank you for sharing  Andrew "If you are afraid of wolves, stay out of the woods" |

Robin, seriously... just relax and don't start stuff. Just let them be. I see that you've changed your critique message, which is good... you'll probably get feedback more attuned to your wants now. As for Casey and Master (who I know are reading this), I hope you guys can just swallow your pride and simply start ignoring Robin, as she obviously doesn't appreciate your insight. I'd reply to your poem, too, Robin... but you obviously didn't post this poem in hopes of having people reply to IT... this thread is just a poll to see how many people agree with you. The constant attention grabs are getting a little tired. If you're only talking to two or three people, use email. That's all I have to say. |

master and cleve or however the heck you spell it - your names are not even mentioned in this poem so why jump to conclusions? if you must know it ain't even about the 2 of you so get over it. kevin- i'm not starting anything!! drew- tks i'm glad you liked it to everyone else tks for taking the time to read this.ok i guess i have to explain this poem. well i entered it in a contest and i didn't win they said it wasn't even worth reading that it was crap so i had to get my frustration out. when i say some people here i mean the people here in nv. you either like me for who i am or you don't like me at all [This message has been edited by punkrockerrobin (08-13-2002 02:48 AM).] |

Please, people, don't fight! Weither this was directed at these specific people or not, it did deal with some issues that have been occuring here, which sparked the replies... Please, I beg of you all, don't fight! |

I think why you are so offended is because you are relying to much on the replies and not enough on your own writting. If you had the confidence in yourself then why would it matter what anyone said? You of all people should know that everyone should speak their mind, and it should not be limited because you dont agree, otherwise arent you just becoming what you oppose? Good luck with your writting.... The ever random posting, xEmperorEmber [This message has been edited by xEmperorEmber (08-13-2002 02:24 PM).] |

Oh, and Robin, I noticed that your name is punkrockerrobin and I was wondering, as a fellow punk (i guess you could say), what punk do you listen to? I'm just curious... I've never seen you on the streets of this town, I've never seen you just hanging around, But you still tell me that you know me... ~Justin Sane |
