""Exploitation" does not belong to a depraved or imperfect and primitive society: it belongs to the essence of living beings as a primary organic function; it is a consequence of the intrinsic Will to Power, which is precisely the Will to Life. Granting that as a theory this is a novelty - as a reality it is the fundamental fact of all history: let us be so far honest towards ourselves!"
- Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil, s.259

I love how similar a piece of paper and a slice of life can really be it is short but so much for it am not saying i cant read a really long poem i certainly cant write them how i am trying for the photographs i take would be truley amazing but i have notice you have a way with words even short ones have such feeling keep it up Β x
just curious how did you get into poetry, any tips would be greatly appreciated

Thank you for your thoughts! I like short pieces the best, but that's just me. I never was able to write a very lengthy piece.
As for how I got into poetry, it helps to read poetry. I like to think I've read a fair bit, and that helped me get into the mood. At one point, the feelings I felt inside needed to be expressed, and it came out as poetry. Sometimes, when you're just expressing yourself, it's just words or phrases...it's only afterwards that you can shape it into something else, like a poem.
Not sure if that really helped. I don't write a lot nowadays.

its okay i do love reading poems and various other things and i have attempted poetry done 3 so far XD and you have helped so dont worry i know you can make a poem about literally anything as am in a poetry app and the challenge was to write a poem about popcorn XD that was rather interesting let me tell you can be bit hard to be original but still trying am what you call a clumsy poet, tis a shame that as your literature is wonderful

I think something like that can help a person step out of the box, and explore creativity for what it is. If one has a theme of "popcorn", one can really go anywhere and everywhere with it. It just depends on you.
If you were a clumsy poet, it's early days still. It takes a lot of time, effort, practice and more - certainly, a lot of revisions of the same piece over and over again. Nothing wrong with that, as it means we're progressing and learning and moving forwards.

Awesome poem. It's so short, yet it explains so much and certainly drives the point across!

I really love the concept in this piece. It's very powerful.

I like it.... reminds me of a little sentence I wrote earlier this year, you might like... "My life now is like an old letter, the torn pieces whirling around in the wind, contents irrelevant."

Thank you so much!
Ah.. yes, that is pretty good! I like how that has a lot of depth to it.
This is probably my oldest piece.

This is amazing. It moves me and scares me.

Wow. Powerful. That's true. I made a poem called looseleaf that I haven't put on yet. This is short but astoundingly powerful.
That's a great simile. True!!

There's so much truth to this.
I love how you can convey so much with
few words. You amazing poet, you.

nice. . .
here is one for you/all
[new shoes on my feet
happy souls on concrete beat
how sublime these streets]
wrote that one on a brown paper bag a loooong time ago, while living out of a back pack and my own karma.
in the 13-14 years that i wrote it ago it has come back to me twice. once on an underpass, and once in the bathroom of a state park.
my thoughts? have hope it is vast but at the same time . . .
i wanna see it on a train some time, that would be awesomenest!

That's pretty cool!
Aww... I think that would be as well.

This was moving. For such a short adn simle compilation of words, to put it simply it was moving.

I love these short ones! Not to say your longer ones are bad, but I like how this is quick and sends a great message.
I made a quote kind of thing (I think of random sayings or whatever you want to call it sometimes randomly...) about paper, comparing it to life.

Lol, thank you! I love them too. It's just a shame I can't write any more along these lines.
Random sayings ftw!
Ah...
