Hard to read, but expect that was very much the point. You did an excellent job making fun of the emo angsty teens out there who think they can throw words together and call it art. Yes, people who defile the name poetry make me sick. Very good job.
And la reina margarita-- not everyone writes like that in middle school, dear; I started writing in middle school and wrote nothing of the sort. Of course, I dare not go abd read some of my really early works, I think I'd be horribly scared at how truly bad I was. It was good for what it was, but certainly that's not the case now. -
sounds like something a middle school age kid woulda written, so good job as far as that goes with the whole teenage thing but, sticky caps make my eyes go buggy..ahhh

I must admit that I am a teen, but I still loved you poem. As I have noticed alot of the teens write about suicide, but do they honestly know how good they've got it. They aren't in a foster home, so their parents must care for them. And even if it's abotu a past boyfriend that they hate it makes them want to kill themselves? Those teen "poets" that write all of that put a stereotype against all of us!
I want to state again that I like your poem alot! -
Lol, that made me laugh. I hate the typical teenage angst poems too, so I make a point of avoiding them. But this was a good piss take poem, well done.
-
Evil in its effectiveness; and even though you'd probably level some of these charges at me as well, I loved it.
BTW
you rock dude!!!
you know my parents are like that to, and its about time somebody told those poetry snobs that pomes are meant to be ritten from the heart
AWESOME !!

lol ben that is kind of funny it took me a bit of time 2 get it but thin is kool
love sara -
Bravo! I doubt I could have done it much better myself. Too many times I have sat at my computer reading about the woes of the youthful generation that seems to be wasting their lives away on seemingly trivial nonsense. It’s good to see that someone even from that generation agrees with some of my own principles and standpoints. By the way, loved you author’s notes; very fitting.

so so funny
hee hee, you so funny
sounds exactly like the streets music which also makes me giggle at the crapness of teenage music. keep writing this funny funny stuff.
doofus x -
terrible
What you don't understand you mock. Cute. Also very mature of you. -
I doubt you have any room to tell anyone to think before you write...
-
Please, take the time to learn to write, then criticise.
-
Wow...Not only is this poem shit, but the people who read it and complimented it. I don't see how you could have some many people comment on something not only poorly written, but so out of context. Just because you don't understand something about someones life, means you critize it? I honestly don't think I can find the sympathy for any of you, that is just how stupid you are...
-
And you say my friend's work is long..? At least his wasn't shit - like your's.
-
This is a good write, although be careful to stereotype teenagers. Not all teenagers do this and not everyone who does this is a teenager. However ThIs stYle of Wryting is annOying! And difficult to do- so why do they do it, if it's difficult then it's obviously deliberate
I think this is a very good poem- well done, I like the satire.
If you would like to comment on my poetry I'd appreciate some constructive criticism- thanks
-
*bows*
this is awful! haha. in the best most amusing way. and yeah, i have to say im a bit annoyed.. i think sometimes that's all they know how to write.. some want attention and some are just finding their poetic wings.. but it sure does get old!! so i have to say good one.
-
Love the satire.... satirical poems are the best cause they just kinda put life out there to show the idiocy of those who assume it to be true. Stereotypes are hilarious to me. I like how you added that part in about cutting because that is a MAJOR stereotype that people both judge and don't understand.... awesome piece.
~lauren~ -
This is really nice. I like it a lot. Keep up the good work an dI will be reading more of yours.
~ BAblackroses -
Amusing to say the least. I am a teenager and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't atleast a little offended by this over-generalization of teenage poetry... Although I can't exactly argue your point because I hate reading the "life is horrible so i slit my wrists and glorify my faults to get sympathy and attention" pieces, and I do applaud you for writing this... I just wish that some adults weren't so stereotypical of all underage poets because there are a lot of good ones on this site that deserve POSITIVE recognition.

Arghhh I hate sticky caps. I want to choke people when I see them. Anyway great satire there.
-
hilarious! and soo true!
thanks for sharing!
~Rose -
::laughs:: This is great. It's a little over the top, but if it weren't so blatantly satyrical, it would easily pass for a teeny-bopper poem. I love the sTiCkY cApS, too.
-
heel yeaaaaaah! dumb wrist slitters! (check out my page)
-
WooW, IT's LiKe OMG
Heheh, just kidding, I really really like this piece!
It's really annoying to hear these teeny teens like that, but oh well, I guess we'll all just float on.
Great poem!
Love,

Superbness
Whoa...like totally cool and awesome..i dont like people who write lYke DiS...its annoying and like, they need some grammar lessons. Great write, I think that you totally said what was needed to say about teeny boper teens who have everything and want more. Good job!
~Sara~ -
Inspired!
Bwahahaha! Spot on there, it's about time someone wrote a poem like this, because I for one HATE the teenage angst stuff!
I applaud you, you are a master! -
You know what? This IS brilliant. Good job!
-
Beautifully offensive. I'm a teenager myself..but I don't think I'm as bad as what you've presented here. At least I hope not!! haha..very funny piece. Keep it up.
-
Oh oh oh! I wrote a suicidal cutting poem satire... not too long ago.
I'd tell you the name of it... but I can't remember...
hold on... *searches* okay, I found it. it's called "fashion suicide"
anyhow-
this poem is awesome. the spelling and sticky caps were to die for. Hillarious!
I do hate those types of poems. and the people that write them can't take critisism. it's so sad.
anyways- great poem, great satrire. and great for not liking or writing poems like these (on a normal basis)

Oh wow, that was absolutely amazing, I loved the horrendous spelling and the barely decipherable writing. hmph, alright I'm done being sarcastic. I really despise generic angst "Last night I wanted to die, because he left me with a lie." Stupid mortals should burn...sorry misanthropic mood. Great satiric write.
-
HAHAHA
lmao. i luv it wen ppl rite lke ths al the tim. NOT. Add some sticky caps, leave out some letters, mispell words hopefully on purpose and you got one hell of an annoying poem. You included not only the terrible so-called rhymes and whiny atmosphere, but you touched on all of the usually obnoxious topics- my life is shit blahdeblahdeblah. I love this. BRAVO! -
lol i write about teenage shit but i try to make it so u understand.. either way good write
-
this is hilarious!i knwo you wrote it that way on purpose but damn its hard and annoying to read.well done.i think im going to give you applause if i have any left for just making me laugh.it is a good write though.
-
I'm amused... you got everything accurate, from the font to the subject matter and its irrelevence to the background to the annoyingly hot pink font. Its really not their fault they write like this though... its only the fact that I lived online for the last 4 years that kept me from being a victim of the educational system... Everyone's told their ideas are unique no matter how redundant they are because otherwise their feelings might be hurt, you can't tell them they've done anything wrong, not the spelling, grammar, or the annoying sticky caps because it might mentally or emotionally scar them... and no matter how much the kid is doing it just to get attention, if they're a cutter, or anything else slightly less than normal, throw em on meds without figuring out whats wrong. *sighs* I really wish your poem wasn't accurate but it is... and thus I must, with amusement and a slight bit of shame, applaud it.
-
i think this is a cool and fair poem to write....im a teenager and i certainly dont write like that ever but this is definitely a good satirical approach to those that do...anyway i like it, its original.
-
Uhm...This Was Well...Weird.. But I Liked It, Hehe, Kinda Funny, Kinda Confuzzling. I Liked The Fit Part hehe
But Good Write. -
You should have entered in the awful poetry contest, lol. Great write.
-
Oh its such a pain reading this kind of work...hehehe... i love how you put together this satire.
Great work!
-
its hard to read but alot of teenagers do it... i would do it if i would be able to read it lol... i like it tho.. good write and i think the style adds alot to it.

hahahaha nice, this is a really good satire of your average teenage poem. keep up the good work. -
Oh my Gawd, this is s00 totally Da be$t. I can so totally relate. U R0K. Keep on rightin.
~*xxxAnAsTaSiAxxx*~
Ok, so I couldn't resist. I don't see how anyone can. This was beyond hilarious, you captured the spirit of those annoying poems and touched on all of the subjects (there are so few) I feel that you could have done more...maybe a sequel? =) I applaud you for writing this, as this is a beautiful parody on all those poems that we all look down upon. Being a teenager myself I should probably start screaming about stereotypes and how dare you to categorize...but I know that I do not apply in this case...so I'll just smile and walk away...laughing... =)

LMAO! I can't stand it when my friends write like that. Then they tease that I write funny.
-
I am a teenager and mine arent like that LOL this is pretty annoying and a lot of teens do this but i wouldnt say all or most do. I had a hard time reading that LOL

masterpiece (trying to keep a straight face)
