Title: My poet spirit is showing its abilities
Post by: TopAce on September 24, 2003, 10:09:53 am
Well, I am not a poet, so read it while keeping in mind that I am not the poet of future generation. But I have written something yesterday night. I want some of you to have a look at it.

Who bumped this thread?
It was no londer a threat
Because the topic was sunk,
and the poster was drunk.

Many of us flame the bumping member,
And say: ('Do not post more here, remember!')
Here is now a focal point to flame
because there is somebody to blame.

Poor flamed guy is running
but the others are still stunning
Do not chase that bloke,
it wanted to be a joke!

The thread is on the top now,
The patience of the admins are down.
They are clicking on the 'close' button,
so the thread may get back to the bottom.

I do have one question Mr Ace. How come you can write a perfectly good and even amusing poem when the english in your posts is still somewhat wonky?

Don't get me wrong, I can't speak a word of Hungarian so I'm not criticising. But I am somewhat confused...

Diamondgeezer, my friend: I know that my English is not good, but I could have written it better, but I stuck to keep the rhymes. :).

the AABBCC formula rules :nod:

pyro: Practising what?

OK, this is what I mean - the first line of your last post was basically nonsensical. And yet you present a perfectly good peom. Which is odd.

you don't know what AABBCC is, right?

Post by: diamondgeezer on September 27, 2003, 07:52:14 am
It's the rhyme scheeme. All the A lines rhyme, all the B lines rhyme. Hurrah for GCSE english, etc. And if you want one that rules, you want AABA with internal rhyming in B. Yes.

DG. Because he is a native speaker, and he feels right to critize everybody's English within his sight of view. He knows that his grammar cannot be critized, because he is a native speaker.

You WERE/ARE critising.

No, I'm not having that. I've just re-read this thread and quite frankly I've not 'crtitisized' your english other that saying it's not perfect (which is a simple fact I'm afraid). Look, I'm not comming in here for an argument, I'm asking you how come - oh **** this. Time for lunch. You're a very hard dude to hold a conversation with, TA.

Maybe I am overreacting everything today. I got up with left leg this morning.

Fair enough. We all have days like that. By the left leg thing, do you suppose that corresponds with 'geting out of bed on the wrong side'?
