Is this a good poem (by buk)
(bluebird)
I feel like this is a trick question. Say it's good... retarded, say it's bad... also retarded. In my honest opinion, I really liked it. I would say it's good.
The mistake rookies in love make is they open up completely. With experience you learn not to but I don't know how to do it...keep parts of me to myself. If that's what needs to be done...how do you do it?
Hmmm... I've been fretting about this question... and then I realised that it's not about how to keep ourselves hidden. I think what we learn to do (after having break ups and heartbreaks), is to love with caution. I am perfectly willing to give of myself, because it is mine for keeps. However, I am not willing to
compromise myself. What I mean by this, is that although I love just as deeply as I once did, I no longer put myself second. I will not change my life plans, or degrade my personal integrity, to keep someone close to me. Sometimes when we love too hard, we get lost. We forget who we are, and give ourselves completely to the other person. I think that the trick is, loving yourself AND loving the other person. Remaining who you are as an individual, as well as being in love, as a couple.
I had a hard time explaining my answer to this question... if it's too unclear just tell me.
Seriously though...I mean men and women...how different are we really?
Wow, do we really want to get into this one? Ok, I've had huge debates on this one, and this is what I think: Men and women aren't so different at all. We may be taught that men are more logical and women are more emotional, but that's a load of crap. THere have been many times where I've remained logical while a guy I'm with has lost his mind...
I really think it comes down to the way we raise our children with gender stereotypes. I truly believe that men are fully capable of
feeling the way that women do. I also believe that women are fully able to be controlled and rational, but are
allowed to have more emotion (furthermore, they are expected to). I think it's an insult to both genders to say that one is better (at certain things) than the other. Honestly Kotte, you can't tell me that just because you are male, you've never felt pain in the same way a female can.
Yea, so seriously answer the question.
Seriously Chest, my perfect man is just a really large phallus. But I felt it was wrong to say that.

I enjoyed this poem, but I felt it was more effective as the first stanza only. I think that the title of the poem can encapsulate what the second stanza does. Is that too minimalist? Hmmm... but yea, I like the language. (did you write it?)
Do I drive too recklessly?
Yes, asshole.
If yes, do you hate that I do it?
Yes because you could die. No because it's just too much fun to drive with an asshole.
