here's what i find about compromise
don't do it if it hurts inside
cause either way you're screwed
eventually you'll find that you may as well feel good
you may as well have some pride

I like the poem but I never saw it as a feminist poem, what do you think is feminist about it?

Thanks, that one is great!

Hey y'all,

What are your favourite feminist poems?
Lately I'm into Adrienne Rich, her poem 'Diving Into the Wreck' is great! I am writing an essay about it, feministic approach :) Enjoy the poem...

I also enjoyed the book immensely! All three head characters are very well written. Best book I read in a while!

Ì think Pride & Prejudice and Sense & Sensibility are two very different books, S&S is more of a drama, P&P more like a comedy. I liked S&S better, not for any particular reason, it was just a...

I love the poem, but the poet is called Robert Frost, right?

Right, well, my favourite poem at the moment would be Leap Before You Look, by Auden. Someone posted it before I did and I loved it :)...

Here you go:

Little Horses

Far out at sea there are horses to ride,
Little white horses that race with the tide,
Their tossing manes are the white sea foam,
And the lashing winds are driving...

I know what you mean about Holden Caulfield, just because he's so smart and perceptive and a rebel! Oh yeah and he's depressed,, well, I don't really know much about that but it certainly makes him...

I don't think shakespeare's original. Those sonnets, blaahh, always kinda the same. The metre gets so boring!! You can just read one sonnet and then you want something else. Am I the only one with...

Thanks for the excerpts from the enormous room! Very nice to read!

I thinks it's very pretty theorie :) But I think that the definition of good poetry differs per person, so there can never be a 'good poetry standard', you can't look at it objectively! But that's...

Wow! I love it!!!

Thanks for the U2 lyrics!

These lyrics, by Amy Ray (Indigo Girls), are kinda fall-related too (yes, she's talking about the season, read it in an interview), but they're not very concrete, more...

I don't I can help you at all, but I'm a bit confused too, what are you asking for? (must be my english, I'm Dutch) But you need to find poems about nail biting, cigarette smoking and...

I love the one by Boris Pasternak! Never heard that one before!
And I love When you are old and grey and full of sleep too! Very spectaculair poems! I also had one poem I just loved and loved and it...

Could you post the whole poem? I don't understand a single word! Please interpret for me!

Haha! I have that sort of phases too :) Just when you can't get enough from one poem!
I even had the idea to tattoo Death be not proud's last line: "Death thou shalt die" ~ John Donne, on my spine!...

Please post what you think is William Shakespeare's best poem. You can also post parts of his plays or something, not restricted to sonnets!

I'm not a great fan of Shakespeare, if you read a lot...

Very 'cool' poem, I think!

Wow! That one's great!

I prefer S&S, it's got so much drama! I love it, but it is a bit more difficult to read tah P&P, that's more of a funny book, but not half as interesting I think :)

I'd recommend reading P&P first, it quite simple if you compare it to S&S. P&P is funnier and easier to read. S&S is beautiful, it's a fuller story, so I'd recommend getting used to Austens style,...

I love Blake, Donne, Emily Dickinson, Poe, Robert Frost etcetera, VERY much, but although I haven't read that many poems of his, I must say that

-ee cummings-

really 'stands out', and is...

I'm no expert, I like the word 'onward' though.

What kind of friend is this? Must be a good one!
