Poetry Edit Meaning

1.

>> Good Poetry

Indirectly stating what you mean or directly stating something that parallels what you really mean. Adding depth and making the reader use their wit through parallels in indirect examples allows for powerful connections and is characterized as poetic writing. Commonly created by patience in organization and witty connections.

>> Cliche Poetry

Often misused and abuse by depressed teen girls (see self proclaimed genius) as they vent a conversation of themselves talking to about or to something that they have relationship problems with. They address the thing they have emotional conflicts with as "you", spoon feed their emotions, add some rhetorical questions, repetition, sometimes end rhyme, and call it a poem. (see venting tool) Common themes are, you don't know me, why are you so mean, definitions of; love, death, innocense, etc., you'll cry when I die, and you'll never understand me.

1. Listen to my venti...poetry ^^ I wrote it in 20 seconds, amn't I a genius!?

2. You goth, go write your poetry. Don't sit at our table.

3. That was great poetry! It really said many things between the lines and was very intelligently organized.

2.

A scramble of words that may or may not make sense to the reader, but always means something to someone.

Poetry isn't excluded to any genre of emotions or audience ages.

FIRE AND ICE BY ROBERT FROST

Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I've tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

But if I had to perish twice.

I think I know enough of hate

To say that for destruction ice

Is also great

And would suffice.

WARNING BY SHEL SILVERSTEIN

Inside everybody's nose

There lives a sharp-toothed snail.

So if you stick your finger in,

He bite off your nail.

Stick it farther up inside,

And he might bite your ring off.

Stick it all the way, and he

May bite the whole darn thing off.

3.

A form of artthat uses language. Poets use the beautyof a language and its words to create a feeling or convey a message to the reader, whether the wording is soft, sweet, sunny, and a lovely walk through a meadow... or clotted, ugly, grungy, and conjures up images of a slum. Just like artistsuse images and colors to create a mood or message, poets use words to do the same thing.

Poetry has been around for over 5,00 years and it's still young, vibrant, and growing. Poetry might even go further into the past, since most people memorized poetry and passed it on orally; 5,000-year-old poems from Mesopotamia could have already been old when they were written.

The practice of memorizing poetery and passing it on by word of mouth is pretty much gone.

Humans change, but maybe their nature doesn't change very much; practically everything that could be said through poetry has already been said, often many times, albeit in different ways. Poets must be original and avoid any clichéif they want to look competent.

Here is some poetry to show you some examples of the different definitions.

1. I wrote your name in the sky,

but the wind blew it away.

I wrote your name in the sand,

but the waves washed it away.

I wrote your name in my heart,

and forever it will stay. - Jessica Blade

2. As I opened the refrigator I felt all of my hair fall of.

It landed in a nice pile on the floor and hurriedly hid under the trash can.

As I took a deep breath I felt my toenails crack and my left hands fingers fell of.

I saw my nose turn black of gangrene and a second later it joined my fingers.

As I bended forward my heart stopped beating and the world fell into darkness.

It was then I understood that I should have gotten rid of the medwurst a long time ago. - Sebastian Viklund Åsberg

3. There's everything in this movie,

Everything that fits.

From the Meaning of Life in the universe,

To girls with great big tits.

We've got movie stars and foreign cars,

Explosions and the lot

Filmed as only we know how,

On the budget that we've got.

We spent a fortune on locations

And quite a bit on drink

And there's ever the odd philosophical joke,

Just to make you buggers think.

Yet some parts are as serious

And as deep as you could wish

But largely it's all tits and ass

And quite a bit of fish.

Other bits are fairly childish

And some are frankly rude

But at least we've got a lot of nice girls

All banging around in the nude.

So take your seats, enjoy yourselves

And let's just hope it's funny

Because it's not only done to make you laugh

But to make us lots of money.

So sit back and have a good time

With your boyfriend or your wife

Relax and just enjoy yourself

For this is the Meaning of Life - Eric Idle

4. The dead swans lay in the stagnant pool.

They lay. They rotted. They turned

Around occassionally.

Bits of flesh dropped off them from

Time to time.

And sank into the pool's mire.

They also smelt a great deal. - Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings

5.

1. An archaic form of literature, now dying off. Doggerel.

As practiced in modern times, poetry is a discredited means of (supposedly) communicating aesthetic thoughts or feelings in verbal form. Thousands, perhaps millions of person-hours, disc/server space, and trees are wasted to develop and store this tripe.

"Award winning" poetry is usually the worst kind, representing the vilest outcome of combining incestuous art-cronyism with self-indulgent self-promotion.

2. A complete waste of time.

1. Bob is nearly finished with his english degree, but he still needs a credit in poetry of the twentieth century.

2.

Small trees that shine

out of watery depths

With broken limbs, like

Becky are

Not why I write.

6.

A form of literature. There is no sharp distinction between poetry and prose, but poetry is generally thought of as placing more emphasis on sound and rhythm. It is also generally more acceptable to defy conventional rules of grammar in poetry than in prose.

Poems can be written in many standard forms such as iambic pentameter or haiku. Poems can also be written without adhering to any standard form. This is called free verse.

Good hip-hop is some of the livest poetry around today.
