    I liked a couple of his plays. Like Hamlet. I liked Hamlet. I don't like his poetry. I like Edgar Allen Poe's poetry though. I'll post my favorite poem later. I've got to find it first.

    Here's that poem. I can't remember who wrote it. I found it in the front of a book. Some of the words may be misspelled.


    No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if clods be washed away by the sea, Europe is the loess, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manner of thy friends or of thine own were; any mans death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.

    umm, i think i know that.

    thats not the whole write i believe. i believe it's from a prose write called Mediation 17, if it's not then it's very similar

    writting poems is easy

    ill make one up right now on the spot.


    shallow the palm of fathers pride
    as the list exceeds i sit and wait
    to base my steps on former ghosts
    upon whose time i intend to waste
    so recieve enclosed a right to learn
    a passage of which i resign
    between dividing lines housed by words
    to form that i can not describe.

    took me about 10 minutes

    yeah, but sometimes you get writer's block. i personally only write poems from life experiences, the kind that just give you that emotion presence

    That's when I write. When I have some emotion. I just write about how I feel and if it comes off poetic, that's fine by me.

    i dont have that

    i can usually write poetry all the time

    every current state is palatable into writting in my opinion.

    i hate poems about faux-pas, pseudo-emotion like:

    cutting my darkness like a knife in the hand of my heart
    you broke me down and i scream in the rain
    and i wear my sorrow like a mask at a parade of parents
    but nothing you can do can stop this pain.

    despite how my poetry skills show, the topic and empty metaphors make me feel sick.
