• The.poet.of.hearts on July 21, 2006

  no relation to winters no theme deserve no good idea define there just 5 lines which you wrote see in my winter nights after you there are many ones who have been commented
  
  and when ever you do poetry so remember one thing u will be called a good poet if your poetry become so deep and some one has work hard and has to find in it something byy reading it many times
  
  and u hiding the meaning go and ask to your teachers what is the real art of poetry
  u know sub continents poetry
  just ask it to your teachers they will tell you whats sub continent poetry
  and listen one thing if william wordsworth came born in india or pakistan he hasnt got anything even poets called him a stuppid poet who dont know poetry
  and yeah about you so first learn something about the poetry
  
  
  just suppose i m mirza asad ul allah khan ghalib 's student
  and go and ask to your teacher evn if he doesnt reply go to the most superior teacher of your coountry and ask -- sir who is ghalib i wanna know him about his poetry--
  then he will tell you who was ghalib
  
  
  if some one say poetry has its own GOd so dont think anything else just think ghalib and meer could be the GOD of poetry
  now plz dont shooout like a child and dont cry
  
  i hope you will understand so soon
  
  and remember i m ghalib's student
  
  and i didnt say child by age but i said child by thinking and poetry level
  understand my child
  and about my winter i still challenge anyone at ap or in anywhere in world tht it has 100 and more differen themes and ideas

  Thanks for visiting the page and reading about What a Kiss means. I have another one about Love is worth celebrating. I hope it added to the quality of your life. Rember Pixies are eternal unless we fall in love with a mortal but elflords and other magical beings are OK. Life sometimes seems boring and Oscar Wilde said boredom is the lust for lust. Dirty old UK dandy but who knows. LOL. Smoosh before I whoosh.

  'bob' the 'elder' ? at 16? hehehe

  great page.. if i weren't so sleepy, i'd read some of your work too... I.O.U. thanks for commenting on my poem... did i say i.o.u.?
• LunaStar13 on April 19, 2006

  hi, i just finished reading your page and had the impulse to comment... it was magnificent and actually made me smile... which i do a lot but it's rare... i am sincerely interested in hearing your opinion about my writings, though you probably won't like them.... so if you desire to or get completely bored, or severely depressed to the point where you feel you have nothing to live for, then remember, some strange person looked you up from nowhere and has offered you a chance to glimpse into her soul, for whatever it's worth... i'm guessing not much? anyways... wether you love them or hate them i would be honored for you to critique them... and be brutal... for i am always highly sensitive...thank you kindly.... and always take care...
• I M me on April 19, 2006

  Hello Bob!How are you?Me too a recovering psychiatric patient.I was tested for schizophrenia.I do not take medicines but practise Reiki and take a diet which is good for the brain and mental health.
• Bob the Elder on March 17, 2006

  yo, positivity, that's the funky shit... hey no really, thanks. erm yeh i don't know what i'm on about, but yeh... nah i didnt think arielle was meaning to be rude on that contest i just thought it could come across as offensive, just pointing that out.
• verse-atility-jac on March 15, 2006

  apart from redhand, your comments recieved are negative, I read your comments on the contest bulimia, i have a sister who suffers from this and as an outsider I can c where arielle is coming from,i am still trying to understand how my sister feels. arielle is asking to understand, she is not being rude, I too have suffered with depression, so many of us have, it's life, it gets to us all sometimes,but at 16 u have so many opportunities to change your life with help and support, but in order to help yourself u have to be more positive, so many people on here seem to write about bad or hurtful memories and feelings, which is good, but at the same time they seem to relish in being depressed,and dont want to change, start reading and writing more positive and humorous fun verse, i have been through hell and high water in my child and adult life so not preaching about something i'm not familiar with, but only you can make it change and move on
  best wishes jacqui

• pine-needles on November 10, 2005

  i know what u mean about ppl being constructive criticism... ive had a couple ppl extremely offended bymy comments... still, i agree with Hazel Eyes that u dont have 2 be brutal. u can point out things u think r weaknesses in the poem or that they could work on, and saythat u didnt like it much, but if ur 2 harsh about it, theyll be 2 defensive 2 listen 2 what u hav 2 say. its not neccessary 2 say its crap or sucks or whatever. i beg ppl 2 be harsh on my poems, but i can undersrtand how it could really bother or hurt others. so yeah. honests good,but theres something 2 be said 4 breaking it softly 2. still, its always great 2 find ppl who really put a lot of thought into their comments and try 2 explain why, not just say "this is good" or "this needs work" or "this sucks."
• Bob the Elder on November 3, 2005

• Bob the Elder on October 3, 2005

  yep indeed, i got 7 points, are you jealous? umm. well your poetry does get read, it just doesn't get comments. yes the box is pointless, if you know that then don't spend your points on it. (or don't spend your money). like i said. get your comments some other way. i bothered to comment coz i thought you might be interested/find it helpful. actually i don't think ap is that great for comments. it's the size and concept of the site, there's not much one can do. like i said. go to sharepoetry. well i don't see how or why people should be forced to comment. some pieces you just don't have any suggestions to make anyway.
• piccola on October 3, 2005

  Maybe pointless .. but it is called a featured box and if you didicate your points, your poetry should be read. The box is pointless not the complaint. I spend real money for my points as well as reading. It's people like you that don't care and just go along that helps the idea of no change .. Why did you bother to even comment .. did you get a zillion points for being long winded?
• Hazel Eyes on September 19, 2005

  You sound like a very intelligent person. What I wanted to say was this: poetry is like art. Like beauty. Like honestly. All completely open to interpretation by anyone, and all easily molded by any one person's perception. That being said, I wanted to comment on something you said in your 'personal paragraphs'... or whatever they are called here. (Seems to vary from site to site). I completely agree with you as far as 'constructive criticism' goes. I believe that we are here on this site to learn from one another and to gather inspiration. Constructive criticism is meant to help... to inform... to open someone's eyes to possibilities they may not have been aware of. As much as I agree with you on this part, I have to say: on NO level, is calling someone's work "crap", constructive, helpful, insightful... or even, for that matter... mature. Crap is simply an insulting word, period. It doesn't matter how you look at it. You have to understand that if you say to someone, "This piece you've written is crap.... because...", they are going to automatically become defensive. (I specifically trailed off there because I know for a fact that if you begin by stating that someone's works are 'crap', they're not going to want to hear your reasoning why). You seem like a very intelligent person, no doubt. Educated and talented and I look forward to reading most of your works. And since you seem such, I thought you might like to maybe understands what goes through the head of someone who is being critiqued on that level. You are likely the person who can take harsh thruth (ie, referring to some of your own works as 'shite'). But not everyone else has the same gusto. Not everyone else has the same confidence. There's nothing wrong with breaking bad news to someone gently. Not everyone may be able to handle critiquing as well as you!
  I'm not saying this to be nasty, or mean, or to start any kind of confrontation. I just see in you the type of talent that could inspire others. You are a poet on here who's critiquing other young poets should value... not be afraid of, lol.
• Bob the Elder on September 8, 2005

  .....Oh... I made it a critical poem? Well crap. Oh well. Thank you for the honest opinion then. I really didn't mean for it to rhyme... Odd that it did, eh?
• hard soul on August 1, 2005

• Bob the Elder on August 1, 2005

• Tipp on July 16, 2005

  ....i have a wart name bob.... just thought u'd like to know... -Ze Duck..
• Bob the Elder on July 15, 2005

  well i would prefer something written specifically for the contest- hence the no prewrites- also i doubt you would have written something original enough already but who am i to know... but if you're finding it difficult to come up with something i guess would be ok...ish. you'll have to decided it won't effect the judging though either way
  yeh is cool asking
  
• confused-lovingit on July 15, 2005

  hay i have a question about your contest can it be something i have already writtin or do u want something that i thought of when i was writting i know u said no rules and shit but just to be clear on what is going up
  thanks
  veronica

• Dienush on July 6, 2005

  I was checking your page to see if you entered anything new and i just saw you have a link of my page here. Well just thought about saying thanks, there are many people who say they like my poetry and not just mine without actually meaning it... I'm glad there's someone who does mean it See you around.
• Bloody Dawn on June 30, 2005

  yes its personal

• vaseline on June 23, 2005

  hey man! you got the gold bravo! well deserved!
• Bob the Elder on June 20, 2005

  i would say, hi, i'm martha, nice to meet you. or maybe if i was martha i would be grumpy and say hi, i'm martha, i don't want to talk to you, maybe just possibly because i hate you and everyone you love. who knows what could happen if i were called martha. it's an interesting question. hmm... i think or maybe i would hide in a hole and cry. eh...
• Thoughtcrime on June 20, 2005

  hello fred, what would you do if you're name was martha?
• Bob the Elder on June 20, 2005

  yeh... people can be shits... oh well, i guess we give them their freedom to be the same as they give us our freedom to... ummm... tell them how their poetry sucks. and stuff. freedom of speach and all, if only we could all make the world perfect, isn't it a shame we all have differant ideas of perfect. lol i talk muchos shit he. oh yeh. and hi. i'm fred, nice to meet you.
• Thoughtcrime on June 15, 2005

  I think we share quite a few ideas when it comes to life in general. For instance you're view on people taking criticisms badly, I got into a similar situation, and the argument went on and on and on. It got rediculous after a while, because they wouldn't stop saying that I was being insulting when it was simply my honest criticism, and I did outline where the poem failed and never just said it was crap. I don't ever do that. Anyway I got blocked after a while which I thought was throughly un-democratic.
