Ava Noire on February 10, 2005

well I'm on break from school because the classes I need to finish up my degree aren't offered until Summer quarter But I've been working and spending as much time with Alaina as possible. Shes 2 now

I didn't work today because she was up last night with a sick stomach I have to take her to see her pedi, later this afternoon.

So school is going fine? When do you graduate and what are you planning to do once the time comes?
hereonearth on June 6, 2004

Hey, I saw that we were in the same group, so I figured I would drop a line and just say hey. When I get the time, I will check out some of your poetry. I hope that our group gets some more members. God bless, Natasha
Ava Noire on May 24, 2004

Hey miss rain - it was good hearing from you. Things have been super stressful lately. I have a whole lot of issues to deal with in my family, which I really don't want to bore you to tears with, but I've been worried about that. School keeps me pretty busy. Later in the Summer I will start going an extra day, which is 4 1/2 more hours of classtime :'( Speaking of school, I am registering for classes today, so will have to leave in about 15 mins to go do that. They have registration at the worst times. It is during the teachers planning periods which is 3-5 for most people, but for those who have jobs, its hard to just take off work and go. With me, I have to make sure the sitter can watch my daughter, who by the way is now 17 months old!!! I have a link on my author's page that goes to my online photo album

anyway - gotta run

xx

Concrete Angel on September 12, 2003

Nah, I meant for the switch. I DID have lil squigglies under that first stanza to seperate it from the rest, kinda like a side note, but I think I took 'em out for some reason. Hmmm... guess I should add 'em back

Oh yeah... and the other part... it just seemed right to me. It's more like a quite, but wouldn't work with quotations... or somethin

Ava Noire on August 22, 2003

I can't believe it's already Fall either. Where did the time go!? Anyway. I start school Oct 1st...I have had a nice lil vacation. I'll absolutely hate being away from Alaina again though.

But i'll live.

I checked out that poet you recommended and added her to the list. I have next weeks list already fixed up and working on the week after that.

I gotta run. Lots to do
Ava Noire on August 18, 2003

I've been in a 'meh' mood too I guess you could say. Thinking alot. Well to be honest I've been dwelling on the past and mistakes and blah blah blah. Nothing interesting happening. Just preparing to start school in sept. and watching Alaina grow. She's 7 months now. Can't believe shes that old already.

Anyway. you keep me informed too ms Julz
Ava Noire on August 17, 2003

Hey. It's been a few days since I dropped in. How's things? Hope all is well.

'lo julz, it's image. I can't thank you enough for your extensive and thorough commentary on my piece. I'm not lying when i say i will take it to mind, in fact, i believe i will take your advice. As for my guestbook, you are the first to sign it. I am not that popular of a poet, and am struggling to find my way to the top by paving a different path that deviates from the same old same old. Enough about me anyway I'll be reading more of your material, seeing as it's of high caliber. Peace and love,

pretty background

so far of what I have read, these are the ones I like best:

One Prayer
Quarter Love
A Poetic Apology
Second Chances -even though you said that one wasn't for consideration, i thought I'd let you know I liked it anyway

I am having fun reading all your stuff. You are very talented

I hope i'm helping at least a litte
Jaden on June 20, 2003

I'd be glad to help. I can send you the program I use to construct chapbooks and a ready made format to put your poetry on.

I noticed you have 77 poems posted. The particular format I use goes up to 52 pages. . .my hardware doesn't allow me to go far past that page count. (Cutting is an issue- I've gone to 60 pages, but it's not easy cutting them down.)

This will allow you to construct your own book. When you're done you'll need to send me a floppy or disk that contains the files to make your book. I'll print it, construct it, and send it back to you. I can do this for $5 a book.

I am going to IM you some further instructions on this site. . .check your messages.

Concrete Angel on June 13, 2003

LOL... thank you thank you for the pickiness on "Infrequencies"! lol
Now... to clear up a few points in the poem for you... the blackened dreams versus the midday clouds are a portrayal of the contradiction I feel in the painting. It's night, yest the moon is so brightly shown it could almost be the sun. (if that made sense)
And... stay with my thoughts on this cause sometimes I lose myself... The words (mentioned first thing) are praising the winds of oblivion, hoping/longing to hold them as well and embrace them (encircled in lovers' arms)
Mind-trap is really the only think to describe the typical adeal of a society of drones and lemmings following the one before unable to make their own decisions.
And the part you mentioned about the "I"... I wasn't even sure if I liked it, and now that you mention it it does seem out of place, but I don't want to omit it completely. Anyway... thankies again girlie for the total critique... I loved the honesty... and trying to explain my thoughts to you has made me understand my own poem better! lol
Stirrer of Stardust on June 11, 2003

Hi Julz!

I wanted to say thank you for the new comment you left on one of your favorites.....thought I'd stop by and let you know I took your advice.....sorta. Permeating is still there, but I think you may like the way I followed it up. I really liked it the way it was, but I do think it has been improved. Thank you sincerely for the suggestion. Always feel free to lend your opinion.....

I'll be back soon to read more of yours.

~~~~~ Blessings, Janet ~~~~~

It's from something corporate the song is... "I want to save you" It's kind of light punk/pop punk maybe. I dunno, but it's an awesome song. Also.. The song "Hurricane" is awesome. There's one part where he says" you don't do it on purpose, but you make me shake. Now I count the hours til you wake with your babies breath, breath symphonies, come on sweet catastrophe" There's piano going in the background. Download it... it's AWESOME! I love it, the words are just so mysterious, intriguing, AWESOME! Anyway, yeah. there ya go.

thanks for editing my poetry.
I just made a few typos.
You have to understand the relationships my circle of friends has to understand why it's an ode to one of my best friends.
But thanks for the commentary and for reading it in the first place.
just hilary on April 12, 2003

Anarcho-Capitalist on February 10, 2003

Hey there thanks for the comment. I'd be happy to tell ya a bit about beat poetry. The big thing about the beats was their unconventional use of language and odd sentence structure. Take writers like Jack Kerouac or Allen Ginsberg. If you wanna read some by Ginsberg check out my author page. One excercise I do which is alot like the 'free-flow' beat stuff is this: Get a notebook pen and timer and find a room or space somewhere thats quiet. When you find that space set the timer for like 5-10 minutes focus your mind on an object around you and just write what comes to mind. It's good to start out w\a time like that and sort of graduate up (I do it for 2hrs straight and times). Anyway the important thing w\it is to not let your pen come off the paper until the timer sounds ofcourse stop then even if your in the middle of word and don't worry about grammar punctuation etc. If you have any other questions or anything feel free to let me know. I'll be in touch.

HiramDiaz on December 10, 2002

Hi candy,

Concerning my poem 'Kierkegaardian', there might be two obstacles to understanding its underlying theme. The first is, the reader may not be acquainted with the works of the Danish existentialist philosopher, Soren Kierkegaard. A second hindrance may be the seemingly unrelated content of the two poem-blocks.

As regards the poetic theme, my intent was to present Kierkegaard in a fashion which was a bit easier to comprehend than in the manner in which he presented his own ideas. Kierkegaard is usually called 'the father of existentialism' because of his proclamation: 'Truth is subjectivity.' And so, the poem is concerned with the subjective nature of humanity. Hence, the first line,

'We revolve around ourselves'

In addition to this, a major theme in Kierkegaard's philosophical works is that of the total soveriegnty of God (Judeo-Christian Deity). And this is where the first poem-block finds meaning. The 'you' being addressed is God, and the 'planets' are humanity. The speaker is an individual who recognizes his inability to change his situation (existential dilemma) and simultaneously recognizes the supreme soveriegnty of God. He is embittered at the God who created the impotency that is innate to humanity. It is unjust, it is God's fault.

The second poem-block is another observer. The second observer, the narrator as well, is a Christian. His view of humanity is similar. He, however, does not regard the problem of humanity's impotency as a result of God's doing. He sees 'The fallen sparrow', not merely as

'planets strung with randomnity,
hung on absolutely nothing,
spinning for absolutely no purpose'

Rather, in alignment with Christ's statement, 'Are you not worth more than many sparrows?', He sees humanity as creatures that are highly valued in the sight of God, but who have preoocupied themselves to such an unhealthy extent that

'[the sparrow] slowly swallows
the last few halfsung notes.
And [he watches], and quiver[s].'

The second narrator fears the existential plight of the non-Chirstian.

Overall, the poem explains the two types of people Kierkegaard spoke of frequently, the Christian (who has found the cure to his existential dilemma/malady in Christ - the second narrator) and the non-Christian (who has realized his existential impotency
and by a failure to recognize Christ as Saviour, or his reluctance to accept what he has found to be true/beneficial to his existential dilemma, has become an object whose existence is self-centered, and endlessly pointless).

So, concluding, the two poems are only connected by an underlying theme of Kierkegaardian philosophical ideas.

Sorry for the lesson, I just wasn't sure if you were familiar with the works of Soren Kierkegaard. And, I love his works - he is actually one of the few Christian thinkers that I truly admire. He has caused me to question my own agnostic religous position.

Well, I hope I didn't confuse you! And I hope that my explanation suffices.

Once again, thanx for your comment on my poem. It is greatly appreciated.
