I've got long hair, with split ends
I don't care, piercing blue eyes
That hide secrets, stories, lies
I'm an insomniac and a sleep-aholic
...I'm a regular Polluck original...
I think bad thoughts,
Get your mind out of the gutter
I think of people, and hope they rot
I've everything you need, everything your not
...I'm your bread and butter...
I'm the devil's adovocate
And the adovocates devil
I'm on the level, and slightly left of center
I'm the splinter in your finger
...A dead ringer...
Sometimes I have bad dreams, and I like it
I dress with my mood, an angel
An angel of death, I'm your first
And your last living breath
I'm your saint, and the final toll
...I'm complete under, out of control...
I'm an abnormality
A homozygote
A technicality
I'm Pre-Mature, Immmature, Post mature
But most of all, I'm a freak of nature

I find this humorous yet very serious at the same time.
Marvelous job with this write! I love the metaphors you've used here, especially the person being like a Pollack painting.
Bravo!

Pretentious
Jackson Pollock was bald does that mean you are bald and have let the side bits grow long -
I think I'm one of these. I sometimes make myself sick.

-
Very good!
10/10 -
I enjoyed the internal rhyme and all of the flips and turns in this piece. You have a very interesting style. No constructive critique to offer on my end, I'm afraid. It's just right just how it stands in my opinion. Thanks for sharing your entry.
-
I really like this. I like how you just let everything out and didn't seem to hold anything back. This is very well written and I feel like I can relate to parts.
I've got long hair, with split ends

^^^^^those lines there really seem to describe me so much.
Great write

I love the attitude and the contradictions you've put into this write. I like "I'm an insomniac and a sleep-aholic". That's totally me
"I'm an abnormality
A homozygote
A technicality
I'm Pre-Mature, Immmature, Post mature
But most of all, I'm a freak of nature"
This is the coolest stanza. I love it. ["immmature" should me "immature" though] Your poem has a lot of spunk and is really fresh. I imagine it as a song. Great job! Thanks for entering.
-Lily♥ -

Again, this is an amazing poem. I can also definetely relate to it. "I don't care, piercing blue eyes
That hide secrets, stories, lies
I'm an insomniac and a sleep-aholic" that is especially close to me lol, even the peircing blue eyes. This was a great piece and you know, I think this describes everyone in one way or another. Sorry if this was a shitty comment, basically all I said was "I like your poem." Maybe I'll be able to give you a real comment later on. Keep writing, you're definetely good! -
I love the poem It is awesome. I know you weren't going for this and prolly hate cheerleader but it kinda sounded like a cheer ( don't hate me ) but yeah, I love it I think that this poem is awesome, it is refreshing to hear the truth and in all reality, we are all freaks of nature... because nature isn't perfect and perfect is so boring
brava
-caesar- -
I LOVE IT
This is amazing, and it strikes a chord with me because this describes one of many ways that I would describe myself. A freek of nature... Yes, yes, yes. I have to stop here, before i pour out every cliche in the book, but amazing poem, very artistic, and I LOVE IT. So thank you... -
pretty good!! a very nice, creative and spunky poem! The only suggestion that I really could make is to change "your" in Stanza 2, Line 4 to "you're". Well, a fabulous job! Very__true!!
-
Nice. I liked this. It was very creative and it made me happy for some odd reason. I liked the images and rhyming in this poem.
-
pumping rhymes fantastic images you have cast with such a mastery of the words poured out together here. A really great job . Most creative. Stella.
-
And it is wonderful.
You've Personalized yourself into your own Person and not what everyone else thinks someone should be like. I love that. I don't want to say anything here that's cliche or oversaid. So I just want to point out a few parts I really enjoyed
"I've got long hair, with split ends
I don't care, piercing blue eyes
That hide secrets, stories, lies
I'm an insomniac and a sleep-aholic
...I'm a regular Polluck original..."
Yeah I have split ends too and they're getting on my damn nerves already
...I have split ends on split ends! Arg.
I also love the part about dressing your mood. I do that too. And mostly I'm lazy and calm so I wear pajamas a lot My prepped up sister tries to tell me I don't have self esteem so I tell her to shut up and let me go back to sleep...I sleep too much... ..or not enough..I don't know.
ANYHOW. I don't applaud often so..yeah this is good.
-x- -
Wow, this is a really cool poem... I especially like the line "I'm an insomniac and a sleep-aholic"... It describes me perfectly, along with so many other people I know. Great write... Wonderful work...
-
This is really cool. I especially love the line ...I'm a regular Polluck original... it's such an original poem. I love it, and it's a great write.
TPC -
Wow that was amazing. I always find it hard to write something like that about myself.. I can never find the words.. but I think you hit it right on the head.
-
I think of people, and hope they rot
i can relate to that line.... terrible isn't it? LoL..
i liked this poem/lyric.
sounds like it would make an awesome rock song.
good work. keep it up. -
awesome
hey I believe that this is a good piece... It's like saying you're not perfect, but you're pretty close and that you like nature and being a freek! That's awesome...
-
good
this is great, imagry just wraps around in your mind -
awsome
dude,your awsome,that is a great poem ,I realy liked it.hope
you win ! -
This is spectacualr, slicks 78. Absolutely fantastic. I was captivated by every word placed carefully in each line of this poem. True proetry, my friend, true poetry. This must truly reflect you, as it seem so unbelievably true and heartfelt. Wonderful job, Poet. Simply wonderful. Good luck in the contest.
~freakISH. -
Description v/s creation...
The last line of this poem is the best line of the poem which has just caught the meaning of the text and distributed the same in the highly communicative manner and made this write just wonderfull. A great work.prabhudayal khattar -
I must say I enjoyed reading this, I like freaks because they usually are a bunch of paradoxal demeanors pushed to an extreme... makes you think of that spermatozoid that once decided to fecundate an ovule and somehow grew up remembering in it's unconsciousness the force and feeling of that impact. Loved this!
-
it's beautiful, that's what i think it is.
it's so honest and i myself fell in with so many of the lines personally.
bravo. -
wow. i loved the contradictions that wernt really that.
"I'm Pre-Mature, Immmature, Post mature"
powerful, and satisfying.
~kb~ -
Hehehe... I wonder how many other people know what a homozygote is?
Awesome peom, a little scary at times... but maybe I'm reading too much into it...
An angel of death, I'm your first
And your last living breath
think about that one really carefully for a minute.
......
that's long enough. anyways, very.... you... totally awesome.
Write more! -
This is absolutely amazing. I don't think I've ever read a poem quite like this. Seemed to grasp at something I think everyone can relate to. Awesome poem. Write on. ~*~SpydurPoet~*~

Being a "freak" is awesome. At school i'm in the freak/goth group and i fit both catagories. I am very "different" *but define normal* and I wear all black almost everyday *bows to the enterance of Hot Topic* People look at me as that freaky gothic catgirl whos friends with those idiots that are really loud......actually I like that tital. I'm not a cutter or anything like that but i have..... evil death wishes for other people but Its only in my mind..... my mind is my happy place.... the part of my mind with my alternate universe. tee hee! I'm very differnt but being different is AWESOME! STAY THE SAME!
Love always
