Any poetry fans?
Here's one of my favorites, by Edna St. Vincent Millay
First Fig
My candle burns at both ends
It will not last the night
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends,
It gives a lovely light!
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics |

The waxworks were an immensely eloquent dissertation on the wonderful ordinariness of mankind. |

I am the centre of the universe - dedicated to the type
look you little people
all you see is me
I'm the centre of the universe
have doubts? ha soon you'll see
That I am by far cooler
than all you little folk
I should be the ruler
don't scoff, this is no joke!
It's hard you know, to be me
The pressure is quite vast
So many things I could be
Depends on who you ask
You want me to be sexual?
I'm the epitmoy of that
You think it's detrimental?
That I put down the inferior tat?
Everyone should know their place
And it's revolving around myself
It's not my fault I can't face
Being left upon the shelf
That couldn't happen, no way
I'm moving with the times
I'm superficial you say?
My act is fluff and mimes?
I'm intense, look it is obvious
I'm deeper than you think
I can see you must be jealous
By comparison, you stink
Don't beat yourself up about it
You didn't stand a chance
I make sure that you feel shit
To maintain my higher stance
You think that's a mean trick?
That's the way to play the game
I have to be a total dick
So all others look quite lame
I'm going up my friend
By standing on others backs
A good support they do lend
Even if I didn't ask
Oh, you want me to be clever
I'm the smartest of the bunch
I'll pull all of your levers
If you'll only buy me lunch
Arty, yes I'm that as well
But look at me lick my lips
I can see your ego start to swell
as I pout and swish my hips
I am listening to you
I'm not waiting for my chance to speak
But lets talk about me too
Some other? no they're all freaks
I want to hear what you feel
Is great about little me
Flatter me and you'll seal
My attentions, and for free
What, where are you going?
How dare you walk away
I'm the centre of the universe
And there I'll firmly stay!
(bored)

a poem for fbnet
A sort of orange forum
the meeting place for all
it's very rarely boring
'cept when ego comes to call
The conversation tends to
take the most predictable path
it's all about the who's who
and the firmness of the ass
The blame is not though, all his
most guys are just the same
pictures of flesh and big tits
everyone is fair game
now do I fancy this girl?
is this one really hot?
becomes obvious as this unfurls
a chance in hell they've not
start a thread on mustard
by the end it's lost the point
a photograph gets posted
concludes with talk of 'fronts'
subtlety seems quite absent
like a shovel in the face
I like to think they're well meant
but the tact is hard to place
Oh, keep this opinion to you
or they will start to cry
of hypocrisy and standards boo!
and can't we just let dogs lie?
But laying is the problem
I guess there's not enough
If getting laid had got them
There would be less of this stuff
A confusing observation
Is the beautiful women thread
you'd think this convenient station
would make need for mass posting dead
but every thread at some stage
gets changed, and moved and ducked
much money I think I would wage
that even this one's fucked
[edit] removed name seemed mean
