Klia Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Tell me this isn't a good poem http://www.waste.org/bauhaus/l/departure.html He was in his room, half awake, half asleep The walls of the room seem to alter angles Elongating and shrinking alternately Then twisting around completely so that he was on the opposite side of the room A trick of the light and too much caffeine, he thought Then came a knock on the door And this sound was the same dark-brown tone as the wood of which the door was made At first, he thought he'd imagined it Because it would not have been out of place with the other strange hallucinatory events of that night But then it came again Only heavier this time With a sense of real urgency So pulling himself up And stepping through pools of moonlight and shadow He made his bleary way across the room towards the door And slowly, apprehensively, raised the latch The latch became a fingertip, touching his own Energy sapping as a new form, transversing the edge of his emotions His power became his agony, his power knew no bounds Whereas before, his peace withstood the vastness His prerogative became an endless force of the all impossible His final soul is flying with contempt only Even the legendary glance backward to meet with eternity's stone in peace or save his already destroyed You cannot share, the temperature is rising The ghost and monkeys make a choice This... This... He tried to will himself back to bed He wanted desperately to feel the reassuring crisp, white sheets once taken for granted To be back home, safe as houses, protected by walls covered in familiar patterns But even wallpaper had become sinister to him He remembered staring into the paisley print and seeing a repetition of skulls At night he would listen to the click of heels on the concrete outside And try to imagine the facial features of the unseen figure He would always see his own face And another realization of this prophecy rang terrible and true For at this moment, it was indeed, his own feet that filled the shoes Shoes that no man would want to wear Into the hills then to search for another searcher's closely held goals Into the forest under the billowing leaves Under the dreadful birds, the singing soil, the decrepid babies, the unhappy new loves The preaching alphabutics, the long-lost lovers never to find the safety of their mothers In fact, all the guilty clouds he will move into a playground A sense of moonlight and shadow All the stars touch to the cold molten sunflower, fly to his middle eye The wallpaper had sinister tones Alas, white cold Alas, rainbow's middle infinity's destination. All life's drums drink from bottles and visioins are blinded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruducuuz Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 It's an awesome poem, but as I said above it tells a story, it gives you a feeling, it isn't just sentences in a line, it entertains you. AWESOME/ SLIGHTLY CREEPY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klia Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 It's an awesome poem, but as I said above it tells a story, it gives you a feeling, it isn't just sentences in a line, it entertains you. AWESOME/ SLIGHTLY CREEPY THE ONLY POEMS THAT SHOULDN"T RHYME ARE HAIKUS AND IF SOMEONE HAS A GOOD STORY THAT IS TOO SHORT FOR A SHORT STORY. It is pretty awesome though. I love the Bauhaus, most of their songs are poems with amazing sounds. But that's a topic for a different day. (But if you are interested-listen to Bela Lugosi's dead or all we ever wanted was everything.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychochaos3 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I do. Me too. Even though I've never met her, I admire her use of an "Avatar" avatar and the humor she added to "another RPG". *cries* I say we give a salute to Purple squid and immortalize her works as a great forum ruler!

Klia Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Forum ruler? I would call no member -except for Thrik-a forum ruler. A great contributer, fo' sho'. She hated drawing the Psychonauts pictures though and I don't blame her at all. It must have been a bitch to draw all the **** we told her to.

90SK Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 At least we can take consolation in the fact that she's probably making better use of her time now that she's off the forums. I still wish she'd drop by now and then, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingCheez Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 This is a thread to post all your hate and get some stuff off your chest. I might as well start. I HATE people who think they deserve respect, and belive they should be treated higher than everyone else. Okay, not me. Hold on, somebody get me a soda. I also HATE people who just say really dumb things, and other people laugh. I mean, making a comment about someone's hair IS NOT FREAKING FUNNY. I mean, they could say anything, and their friends will laugh. I mean, he could relate Geoge Bush to Hitler, and they think it would be hilarious. Yeah, yeah... those people sure do... suck... I also hate people with photographic memories, or can remember things easily. Gruducuuz I get the feeling you're starting to dislike me. My last rant is of people who think they can draw. Drawing, in my perspective, is taking things, and putting them down on paper in your perspective. DRAWING A PERSON FROM A VIDEOGAME OVER AND OVER UNTIL YOU CAN DRAW LIKE IT FROM MEMORY IS NOT ARTISTIC, CREATIVE, OR IN ANYWAY MAKE YOU GOOD AT ART.That one hurts me, AND most of the fanartists here who draw Raz all day in their notebooks. I'm getting the feeling you have something against me, Gruducuuz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smon Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 No see, what Grud meant in that last post is looking at the same pic over and over again until you can draw it perfectly in that pose. Drawing the same character is okay, but not the same picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruducuuz Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 I'm getting the feeling you have something against me, Gruducuuz Those are just a general statement, its not directed at anyone specific, and if you act like that then yeah, I might not like you too much, but this is the internet, where you can be everything youre not! And Smon got my meaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mashi An'krekku Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I just realized something the other day when I was reading the back of a bag of potato chips... They talk about the CHEDDAR CHEESE flavour and NEVER the sour cream, yet they call them CHEDDAR AND SOUR CREAM POTATO CHIPS. WHYYYY? IT MAKES ME SO ANGRY THAT SOUR CREAM IS IGNORED!
