Floatanta
A floating ideea...
Under a linden tree,
Near a burning field of hemp.
An ideea which makes me think of
The carousel from last summer,
Carousel of ideeas
Which I shared with my friends
While trying to ravage the Universe
By creating a new measure,
Measure of futility,
Measure that shows
The value of things seen through
The pessimistic spectrophotometer.
The value which makes us laugh,
Under a linden tree,
Near a burning field of hemp.

I'm not very good at analyzing poetry that isn't like:
"I went to sit on the
toilet
to take a shi.t
and slipped
and noticed
myself bleeding
and then realized
that I must just be
a woman."

But I have to say that I LIKE this,
and I also like "ideea"...
Strange spelling arouses me at times.

First of all: sorry about spelling - i'm not an english speaker ( american, australian, british etc.)
Second: about poem - as you probably know incidents don't just happen, there are some factors that lead to them. A few days ago i saw that movie: "Dead Poets Society" were proffesor John Keating (played by Robin Williams) said that poetry is a way to express your feelings. Yesterday i had to make a poem to mock somebody. I liked the ideea to write something and by using my feeling (as adviced by Keating) of boredom and excitement at the same time i started to write the things i saw running through my mind while being in those states. But there were so many ideeas for subject... they were passing through my mind just like on carousel. But one ideea was hovering, floating above them all - to write a poem

oh and by the way if i would have slipped in toilet and saw myself bleeding i would have realised just how bloody drunk i must be.

[Umbilical]

you could be drunk and a woman at the same time.

?

or drunk with a woman, or drunk with a drunk woman!

Yummy.

I like your reasons for writing. :)

Continue it!!

Maybe it's about a woman who realised that she is a woman? :)
If i bleed i exist.
I exist as a woman.
----------------------
Result: If I bleed I am a woman.
Don't know how logic is that but its kinda funny to think of it that way. :)

Very logical. It happens to all of us.
