Sounds ok to me. Can't wait fot the poll! :)

Weird fellows indeed. I wish I could rhyme as naturally as you do. Wonderful poem! :)

What a lovely poem! I like very much how it is able to bring the image of the fantastic scenario in the mind of the reader. I also liked very much the last stanza. Truly beautiful!

Thanks! :)

Yup, I did. I'm very interested in this thread, although I usually can't rhyme very well. :P Also, I'd make a haiku, but I usually don't compose them in the strict, japanese meter - for some reasons...

I like how the poems seem to be written in very different "voices". But "Hopeless" is my favorite by far - not because it's probably the "darker" poem of the set, but because the line-breaks made me...

twelve (6 letters) minus seven (5 letters) equals seven minus half (4 letters)? It does sound a bit crazy, but it's all I can think of at the moment.

There isn't a necessary link, but there often is one. Religious hymns (which could be considered "mystic" depending of your definition), for instance, have been around since at least basically humans...

It could be, but it isn't the correct answer to this one. Try again. :)

I don't think I agree with that. If you are doubting something you should read both arguments against and in favor of. And there are quite a number of arguments for the existence of god, both old and...

Ok, this is pretty easy, but here it is:

I am what I am,
but if you know what I am,
I am not longer what I am.
Guess, what am I?

This. Also, this is probably the most delightful poem I read in quite a long time.

I think I should clarify my earlier post; by "skillful use" I meant not only mixing extant material, but also creating something new out of it. If creativity weren't involved of course literature...

Really? I have many friends who are unhappy because they do fall in love for this kind of people; and having been in their situation mysef, I can confirm they aren't faking it. Then, at least not all...

Actually, the whole notion that someone somewhere invented agriculture is kind of a myth - things did change, but slowly, for thousands of years. Everyone on the line from a complete...
