Untitled

Anger emanates from within,
Ruminations of reason and objectivism
Succumb to riotous hatred.
All before initiation, the argument
Lost to the irrational.

Logic and pragmatism peter
In the simplicity of rage.
But none occur without reason;
Incentive justifies for all but one.
One, solitary and despondent,
Carries on in penance.

In an annoying Saif Ali Khan like voice, "Wow" (to be pronounced as "waaw". You know how Saif does it right?) :P

But no, seriously, it was pretty cool. I always like how you end your poems. One, solitary and despondent, carries on in penance. There'll be many like that. In fact, most people who'll read the poem will feel it's the story of their life. Is it the story of yours?

Nik said...

hehe. The story of my life, nah. Mine is far more hilarious. *grins*
Inspiration for this one came from somebody I know.
And thanks.

I like it. The choice of words is good. The flow's great.

However, as you yourself said somewhere - you are beginning to get repetitive in your writing. Experimentation is the key. Try something totally different, something far outside your comfort zone. The result may not always be very good but don't let that deter you.

But you see the problem is I;m not quite sure what my comfort zone is. I only started writing poetry some 4 months ago.. you could consider me an amateur. And another thing is the only time I do write poetry is when a strong emotion surges through me and what you read is the outcome.
Nonetheless, I'll give it a shot. Might be hard, but I'm sure I'll find something to write on. *shrugs*

Part a.
Hate is a strong word, but I really, really, really don't like you.

Part b.
Bet you haven't heard the song.

Part c.
Objectivism? Ha. I know why. :P
PS : Ffox spell check says the word doesn't exist. :|

Part d.
Logic and pragmatism *grins*
The word is emotions, woman. *cracks up laughing*

Part e.
I hope you understood. :D

Part f.
Untitled?! CHOR! :O
Okay, I'm random.

Nik said...

a. That is an established fact. But what did I do this time?

b. Err... what song?

c. You do? *sounds sincerely stunned*
(And I know!!... I was starting to doubt my spelling capabilities while typing this out. :-P)

d. They weren't my "emotions".. it was a vicarious bit of writing/words-to-ridicule-self-with.

e. Take a wild wild guess. :-|

f. No, you are bored. (but out of shear curiosity, did you patent the word?)

"There are definitely loads of details like that to bring into consideration. That's a great point to bring up. I offer the ideas over as general inspiration but obviously there are questions like the a single you deliver up exactly where probably the most essential issue will be operating in sincere very good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged all around issues like that, but I'm sure that your career is plainly recognized as a fair sport. Anyhow, in my language, there aren't significantly very good supply like this."
