I don't need the right to rhyme, I don't feel the pressures of time. I write when I have something new to say. I am deeply interested in the possibility of making music or writing song lyrics for people that can play music. I'm happy when i write. I don't really take all my writing seriously, few exceptions, but writing's something I enjoy. Some of my fav's musically are The Doors, Rolling Stones, Creedence Clearwater Revival, HENDRIX (of course), The BEATLES, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springstein, Ray Charles, Cream (Eric Clapton), Led Zeppelin!!!! Sly and the Family Stone, Johnny Cash, Lou Reed, Deep purple, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS!!, John Frusciante (he's amazing by himself) , Nirvana, "Live" the band, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, Audioslave, Counting Crows, DAVE MATTHEWS BAND , O.A.R., Oasis, Bob Marley, John Mayer's newer stuff, mostly his live stuff, wow I could obviously do this all day, Jackson Pollack, Burroughs, Baudelaire, Andy Warhol (some), George Lucas, Steven Speilberg, Etc. Etc. I eat bread out of the bag, peanut butter out of the jar. BEER over hard liquor, I REALLY LOVE to eat Bagels, peanut butter & jelly sandwiches. I'll take a STEAK over chicken ANYDAY!!! My favorite poet has to without a doubt be the great and late ROBERT FROST! Cant say enough about an amazing man such as him.

facethejam : hey on October 21hey i really appreciate your comment on my poem called "your letter". i also like writing war poems (for some unknown reason) and i recently wrote a sort of sequel to your letter called my letter and another poem called "A WWI Poem". Do you think you could look at them and tell me what you think?

LoL
hey Brian, glad to see you dropped by on this one. I'm glad to see that you liked the line "bitch" LoL it really took me a long time to think of what to say and how to express my feelings haha. Well it was the last part of the poem that I had written, exactly as you see it there and I just thought that it would be fitting with the rest of the poem and the tone that I wanted to reflect upon the reader. Thank you for showing me my faults in this one, or instead of using the word "faults"(I mean it just doesn't make me look/sound like I'm infallible) we'll use the phrase "creatively weak spots" LoL that was a big sarcastic A$$ joke. Just in case somebody missed it. But I've made some small and subtle changes to it so the rhythm flows better and the snags aren't there in the rhythm, at least they shouldn't be, I kinda did all of this in a hurry. But thanks for stopping by to read and even more thanks go out for taking the time to leave a thoughtful and constructive comment. It's highly appreciated.
TTYS
MM
well
ya didn't have to go and do all that LoL, now I feel like an asshole. I really wasn't being serious when I had said the "WTF! where's my shout out!! LoL JK" It was honestly meant as a joke, But I appreciate this very much, though I'm not really a big fan of acrostic poems, there are some that I really enjoy, and of course being biased on this one I'd have to easily say that I personally enjoyed and appreciated this devotion of words. It means alot to me when people and friends that I've known personally and been through some trialing times with them, and yet those people haven't made or done anything to show their emotions in such a way that you have right here. Thank you again Brian. You are a true blue(water element) soul that's always out there giving it his best even if it's just to make one person smile. Which makes you a changer of the world. One little smile and laugh at a timeTTYSoon

P.S. Oh yea and about the Applause thing also, I didn't give you one on that poem b/c I've realized that I've been over using them, and if three's the best that it can be then to get three from me the poem's gonna have to really catch me by surprise/knock me off my feet or something to that extent LoL, I think ya get my idea. So it wasn't anything personal against you. But when I see a poem that's deserving I'll still be more than willing to give out the PERFECT THREE!
