Rate my new poem please
 
I suggest reading this version first:

culture shock
seemingly endless culture
X-pressway jungle
Addiction + structure = flower cracks
an engraved sense of fear
the world is ticking ....
upside down clocks along charcoal colored square window
metling steel forming stairs to hell.......

fire plane
sucede from this place and concoct a revolution

>>>>>>>>>>>>> Down with this ship


xxxxxxxxxxxxxActual versionxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 


remember this isn't your usual poem, I guess it could be called jazz poetry?...

my friend jay wrote a poem today that started "it is big and long from my home"

Glice 04.12.2006 08:04 PM

I voted 10 on the grounds that I went down the screen quick enough to not read it. No offence, but I really, really, really hate poetry made by people. But I'm sure it's very good, I just never, ever want to read it.

WELL DONE!

Do you prefer poetry made by robots?

Glice 04.12.2006 08:16 PM

Excellent. Well, whatever it is, I'm sure it's the best motherfucking poem around today.

What the fuck kind of a question is that? Other people's poetry is mostly indulgent bollocks. I like Mr Chatham, hence I refuse to read his poem. Isn't that as simple as can be? I'm sure it's fucking excellent, but I absolutely, categorically refuse to read poetry made by anyone for any reason apart from dead people whose family I don't know. Couldn't be simpler for me. Rhys - you're poem's probably the kind of thing that would change my mind - you fucking rock.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 04.12.2006 08:23 PM

haha, thanks dude.

I'm sorry, do you prefer poetry compposed by literate trash cans?

Glice 04.12.2006 08:30 PM

Literate trash cans? I don't even know what that means. In fact, I suspect it means nothing. Look. I'm being honest - I don't like poetry unless it's made by someone about whom I can have an opinion without feeling guilty about disliking it. I like Rhys, and I don't want to dislike his poetry, so I'm refusing to read it. I have so very, very many friends who give/ have given me their shit, indulgent, masturbatory, cod-romantic/ pseudo- postmodern bollocks that I have simply given up reading poetry unless it's by someone who's already published, which means that there is some kind of shit-filter between it and me. Go to Poetry.com, read everything on there, and then try and tell me that I'm not right.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 04.12.2006 08:32 PM

I used to put stuff there.
its to limiting.

RIPfrey05 04.12.2006 08:33 PM
