    Yeah, dark's ruining all the fun.

    and say dark, what is a chiffre? meter? a metaphor? an allegory? a rhyme pattern?

    It's not a duplicate topic when you lock the old one >: (



    It drunk all my milk,
    Licked the bowl clean,
    Then the great yellow hedgehog,
    Hogged under the hedge.

    Once upon a time there was a
    tree
    A
    Person sat under that tree when, suddenly, outta nowhere
    Gravity stabbed him in the back

    The man died.

    Roses are red,
    Violets are blue,
    This is a poem,
    That isn't Haiku.

    A preoccupied vegan named Hugh
    picked up the wrong sandwich to chew.
    He took a big bite
    before spitting, in fright,
    "OMG, WTF, BBQ!"

    Blue violets, red roses
    With which one proposes
    The first half of some poetry:
    That I may possess you
    That I may address you
    And use you with my entry

    To EMR's Challenge of Poetry!
    Where intellectuals frolic with glee!
    We combine and align,
    We have a good time,
    So go write some poetry!

    "Join in" he requests,
    "Write a poem" he insists,
    But i am unable,
    To write part of that fable,
    For my poetry skills are lacking,
    I swear i'm not slacking.

    I beg to differ,
    Mr. Self-hater,
    I don't think you quite understand.
    The rules blatantly say
    Don't be shy, come and display
    Your thoughts about the topic at hand.

    You say i self-hate,
    I disagree,
    It's just i'm no Nate-
    SMZ,
    Serious poetry is not my gift,
    I'd ruin your poem,
    You catch my drift?

    Ah, but OV,
    You don't need to be SMZ
    To respond to our poetry.
    You see, I have led
    You, in this thread
    To do the challenge instead
    You see how we write
    Together, it's quite
    The same as the challenge-so write tonight!

    The challenge and our poetic bickering,
    Are not exactly the same thing,
    This is devoid of the feeling,
    that sends my mind reeling,
    Not to mention an adjective.
    To Collaborate well,
    As is your objective,
    Is lost on my emotionless shell.

    Every single poster,
    Has skills to boaster,
    My work could never fit in,
    As i have said,
    With the epic within,
    The community poetry thread.

    There's no way to avoid it.
    Here or yonder, you will lose.
    Extraordinarily sneaky, it will get you.

    Gone is all of your hope.
    At last you have failed at it.
    May there be no regrets.
    Ending this now and suddenly.

    You all just lost.
