Eastern

My name is Joe, I live in Florida. I love to surf and be in the ocean. I used to write poetry a lot in highschool, my teachers said i was good, so i stopped writting. I have recently picked it up again, and found that joy. I hope you enjoy my poems and writtings, and that you are honest in all of your responses.

  • Brian Balzer : Hello Eastern on December 26, 2008
    Welcome to sharepoetry. This is a small, yet rapidly growing community of talented poets. Most of the folks here are fairly friendly most of the time. If you have any questions feel free to holler. I'm happy to help anytime I can. Enjoy your stay. I have compiled a list of helpful hints I will send to you that would help explain a few things. They explain the point system and how to win a free membership and things like that. Let me know if you if you find them helpful and if you think of anything that could be added. Just a note, this is not an automated message. It is a personal welcome from a fellow poet. Welcome.

    I was listening to music a while back and heard a line about someone feeling told, the way i took it was that the character felt like others looked at him as if he was different and didn't fit in and in the same sense he felt he was better than the others because of this... i guess i kind of heard words put together and made up my meaning for it.. As for the past and present tense your totally right i wrote this super late it must have slipped, thanks. and the last two lines could definitely be better and i know there is something better to put in it i just havent figured it out yet.
    Thank you so much for the comment and constructive criticism, i really do appreciate it.

    Thanks man, About the shift from the second stanza to the third, I actually feel the same way, i had a slight mood change when I was writing it and didn't really notice it till re-reading it later, but i decided not to change it, i sorta like the "abstract-ness" it added in a way.
