this is the only one i can find for you that i have saved. i dunno if i like it yet, a spare of the moment writing i suppose. but you can read it.Taxi Do not stop the car. Allow me to remain in this transit forever. Travelling under tall balls of light of an orange hue, Towards some ominous dark beyond, Where the road thins out and we can not see. The window is cold against my cheek, His casual and gradual conversation soothes me and I am happy In my misery. Leave me be. Leave me with thoughts silently passing through my head. The night happens over again and a tear escapes. I do not want to go back, nor arrive at my destination. This limbo is comforting. Leave me be. Her restrictions, his persistence, His shouting and their ridicule. The trivialities of life weigh me down in this uncomfortable car seat, And yet this is the only place I want to be. One step back, I will again be amongst the misery I escaped from. One step forward, and I will be face to face, With the sorrowful, monotonous existence I am presented with each new day. I feel ostracised when I am surrounded by others, But in this solitude, I can demolish the facade that kept me fitted with other’s ideals. I am me here in this solitude, Leave me be. Do not stop the car. Allow me to remain in this transit forever.

or there's this one;Onlooker Watching you. Watching your every carefree movement As if you were a child naive to its enviroment. You move with such confidence it seems surreal; To glide through your actions as a shark's fin cuts through tranquil glassy seas, With such ease, As if there were nothing that could harm you. You are invincible, You are what you will. You carry yourself as if you thought they could throw everything they had, And still, you would remain- One eternal glowing flame. Watching you. Admiring your pure confidence. Inspired by your unwavering self confidence. To be so sure - how must that feel? To live your life as if no one else's opinion could bring you to your knees. It must please, to be so undoubtedly you. by manic_224 where's pez anyway and why is she not writing her poetry here??? |

Thank you Dave.*ahem* Why does Pez not post her poetry here? Perhaps she learnt the virtues of dignity while she was gone, or else simply snapped out of the fantasy realm where her poorly written teenage trash poetry, full of uninspired typical forms and sickening cliches together with a mangled and disjointed way of wording things more suited to a dislexic child, could possibly compare to Manic's quality and enjoyable poems. In closing the answer I assume is that she would be too embarrassed to juxtapose Manic's superior work, and rightly so. |

Let's be honest, fact of it is whether you like it or not, any form of friendship with Pez coupled with social niceties dictates you SAY you like it. I am free of this obligation. Pez's poetry is badly formed and will never go anywhere, and she knows this, support is nice and nostalgic, and yet remains completely meaningless in relation to the technical poetic abilities of a girl who can do nothing but rely on tiredly reformed cliches and trivial complaints to give her poetry weight.Is is true that, when personal opinion is removed and Pez's poetry is judged objectively, that it comes up lacking anything worthwhile? Absolutely. Is it true that Pez's poetry would be met by laughter if ever read by an editor? Absolutely. Does pursuing this make me a mean human being? Quite very possibly. Gosh darn.

Uh...when I find my my tattered lil notebook I will. I kinda lost it after the school year, I have a feeling it's under my bed somewhere....I really gotta clean under there. I'll look for it tonight. Mine are kinda like that as well manic....I dun think I had a happy one in years. Tostito....dignity? I laugh at the thing. As I was re-reading this thread I noticed you said my writing will be laughed at by an editor. Well poetry is not my particular thing in writing, I do mainly short stories and I am working on a two novel story idea at the moment. I get many comments both good and bad on my stories from people I don't know, who have read them on some online archive. I am proud of my writing, and if you do not like it, well that's your thing. And I welcome you for the constructive bitching, Oh Man With A Large Thesaurus, it only helps me become a better writer.  |

Aw, that's real cute how you're Ghandi. Were you playing the CD of the Dragonheart film score while you posted that? Crippled little girl. You can't write. You are like Carwash calling himself a writer, only people like you so they don't argue. You have no ability beyond that of a sad high school girl who tries and fails. I personally prefer to laugh at those who try and fail and do nothing myself. It is my calling. None of this changes your mediocre standing in every respect. I just got an idea though! It solves your problems. You could dye your hair a whacky colour and listen to alternative music to assert your individuality. Then you'd be trully different from the hordes of idiots just like you.You are a bad writer. Manic is a good writer. This equals you having no dignity. See? Although it doesn't surprise me in the slightest that someone who would suck dick for money laughs at dignity. |

And where is YOUR poetry, Tostito? Show us what you can write!Pez dear, poetry is a written expression of our reactions and feelings to what is happening around us. Whether good or bad, it aids the writer. Call it therapy...and keep on writing, Pez! If it feels right for you...then it is "Good Poetry".

Thank you for that brief inane interlude. Your poetry is second rate shit too, by the way. All the tripe you just dribbled is up there in the stupidity stakes with such gems as 'Beauty comes from within'. Well here's a tip- That's what ugly girls tell themselves, and good looking girls condescend to tell uglies. There's a metaphor for Pez's crappy poetry in there. As for my poetry,Lotus likes lycra, take those bike pants away from my retina, whore. How'd you like that poem, hanger-on scrag? Pez's poetry and your diatribe get a big award straight from everybody's favourite superior being. |

What a load of bullshit!  What my poetry is or isn't I care not two hoots. As for your poetry...get the genre right. Technically, it is a HAIKU. You are very good at trotting out a couple of banal lines for your own self-centred amusement. Now try something a bit more substantial instead of the same old tripe that you accuse us lot of dishing out to others! Grow up, you bully...and try someone your own size. Petty and small minded.

Are you taking drugs, you ugly old bitch? I am getting shivers, this is the kind of 'play' that PFG would have made. Dividing people? What a joke. More symptoms of your weakness. I believe I've done nothing but compliment Manic's poetry. Perhaps reading the posts you are arguing with would be a good strategy. Poor woman. I hope your breathing is alright. |

Where did I ever say you ridiculed Manic's poetry? I DIDN'T! But, you have ridiculed her before over other matters, she has stood up for herself...you have batted her back down...and she has apologised to you! The threads are too numerous to re-iterate on. And yes, Manic IS on of the nicest people on the boards...I agree with that. I enjoy both her poetry and her posts. No, I don't do drugs. Not Prozac, not anything. I also don't do vitriolic posts at people who have done nothing to deserve them either! But I will NOT see you persistently putting down others on these boards without standing up for them!  Ugly old bitch? Oh yes, but I am an alive MAD ugly old bitch! Get to my age without having your nasty little puke-brained adolescent guts bashed out and THEN come talk to me...if you live that long!

Come and get what, exactly? Why disturb me if you're not ready to get to a valid point? Let's itemise your list of paltry charges, shall we, so you can get to the heart of the matter?1- I am a hypocrite 2- I ridicule 'regulars' 3- I ridicule my friend Manic and she apologises (??) 4- I am a mushroom... ahem. 5- I will get beaten up before I reach the age of 50 (approximate age, judging by the wrinkles in your photo). 6- I post abuse at people who "don't deserve" it. 7- I have indigestion. 8- I am a bully. 9- I am petty and small minded. That will do quite well for now. Let's straighten some things out for the stupid one, shall we? 1- I will not have this. A hypocrite is one thing I am not. Explain if you expect to be taken seriously. 2- The crappy regulars. Rockjock, yourself, Nick Zbu, and the droves of sheep you collect like a power crazy slut. I take pride in this and a certain fancy pantsed delight. 3- Untrue. Your 'too many to reiterate' is an excuse for the lack of such threads. I wish there were some kind of rules of engagement at WWYK, because if there were you would be in contempt. Playing this angle so hard when it is obviously flimsier than a house of cards. I like manic, she likes me, we are friends, get over yourself. 4- Worth replying to? Offensive or in any way witty? Nope. Something a middle aged idiot would think was clever, up there with 'cool bananas'? Yes. 5- Do I laugh now, or would it be preferable to drop you a line when I am a successful tycoon? I have never doubted the fact I am going places, and prove so regularly in my real life. Trashing you fools is a pelasure, unlike you, the internet is not what I strive on nor what I live for. As opposed to you, who finds yourself at a later stage of your life, by the age of 45 or so have managed to attained the coveted position of secretarie's assistant's assistant or something equally low on the food chain, and sired two pathetically stupid children. Congratulations, your life was worth the effort... 6- Thank you, I try. 7- I'll get myself some Mylanta, bile be gone I say. Almost as bad as PFG's 'poison, baaahh!' fiasco. In fact you remind me more of her everyday. 8- "Oh my! I don't know if I can live with myself!" Once again, thank you, I try. 9- Incorrect. I am intelligent. Vastly superior to yourself in the mental stakes. And I would personally classify dragging manic into this as a petty move on your part, you pathetic little snake. You are such a hypocrite. Did I say hypocrite? I appear to be mimicking, boo fucking hoo. But it is undeniable. You are a complete and sickening phony in every respect, and when you get psyched up like this you let your true colours show with gutter tactics. Have at it, bitch, you've got nothing on me. I take pride in what you seem to hate, and find everything you say contrite and poorly expressed. quote: read what I said. I have no idea about Pez's looks...and it is not about that.
Just as well, I wasn't talking about Pez's looks. As I said, a metaphor. You really should figure out how to read and understand things in their rightful context or I am going to go insane and/or blind from the display of inept stupidity. quote: I am heartily sick of the the bile and criticism Tostito spits out at regulars on these boards
Ah, Lotus, Braveheart would be proud, you're such a defender of the defenseless, such a warm hearted and loving girl who "just can't take it anymore". Pathetic wannabe martyr. You are so WEAK. You and I are fighting here, scrot bag. Not me versus you and your friends. You try to make everything something it is not. You are a spoilt child. I am here for Lotus psychosis, and do not insult those I care about, just the retards you entertain in your spastic fits of artificial happiness. Just you Lotus. Just you. Just.. you... by your self. Now can you move past exagerated emotive bullshit and get to some sort of a hard point, or will your 'I am really nice, just fed up, plase believe me, I just can't TAKE big bad Tostito's poison any more, BAAAAH!' nonsense continue all night?

How many people have you seen actually die, Tostito? No, I did not this time...nor am I talking about old farts either. I am talking about friends I have seen die before they were much older than you.Very nice poetry...shame it is stolen. Again, where is something worthwhile that YOU have seriously written? And don't make me laugh...bad for my poor tired old frail body. I am already in fits at you saying you are not a hypocrite. Yes, you take pride in the fact that you are a walking asshole. About time you had those unsightly feet removed from your bum...or was that the last person you metaphorically shat on and swallowed (ass)whole? I really don't have time for this...but I shall play. What is your gripe with Pez poetry (other than the fact she seems friendly with Nicky and you set out systematically to put down and belittle anyone who is even remotely connected to either Nick or myself? Please don't bother wasting your spew on this one...anyone with half a brain can see it is true. I care about people...so sue me. You do not know me and do not WANT to know me. DITTO in reverse!  |

Tostito, I don't really care if you say I can't write, but when you say something like this I do care.
I do not own the Dragonheart film score cd, I was watching Iria when I wrote that.
I'm a failure? Well I'll just have to work on my skills before I go to college to major in my "bad skill area", now don't I? Why would I want to seperate myself from the crowd? I already am a loner, because of people like you who said the same old shit every day for my entire social life, causing my self esteem to lower greatly. I now keep to myself with a pissed off attitude when I'm out in public, only with my friends I am actually happy. I just realized by reacting I am only making you feel better about yourself by letting you know your words got to me. Lotus, thanks.

Don't talk to me about death, you disgusting emotive little bitch. I am so sick of your sympathy grabs. Keep your snivelling to yourself. I have watched my grandfather waste away in hospital, and had both a cousin and close friend taken from my life by a motorbike accident. What could you possibly hope to know of my life? I believe I treated the death of your asshole friend quite civily till just now. The truth is he was a complete dopey cunt from what I could tell over the internet. Whoops, there went my humanity, I told the truth to a cry baby. Suck it up you sad hag, I find you lacking dignity to a far higher degree than Pez. Aside from which, a bone to pick- Your eulogy for this 'great friend' was a sad face, you sick bitch! Sad face, lock thread! Is this the level of your friendship? Are you so mentally ill you think an internet smiley is enough? Has your life degraded this far!? quote: . What is your gripe with Pez poetry
My gripe is social conscience. Her poetry is sickeningly bad. I hate Zbu and his lackeys, not anyone in contact with you or Zbu. Do I hate Exile? No. Do I hate the moderators who like Zbu, although fewer as time goes on? No. I have disliked Pez in her own right for a very long time, at first relatively secretly, and then openly. Far before her bad poetry. I believe if you asked PixieChic she could support this as witness. quote: Same as he once said he thought I had contempt for all youth.
?? You are a liar. And a stupid person. When? Under what circumstances? Not only do you flatter yourself that I would talk to you beyond meaningless 'Hello, Lotus, how are you today', but you make stupid things up. The point? It wasn't even made up for an effect. Just so stupid. And yes, stupid is the ultimate insult. Stupid people do not deserve the resources they waste, eg. Air. |

The biggest liars are those that lie to themselves. You say this of me...but you are the biggest liar on these boards. I deleted all the conversations you had because of the pettiness and bitterness you used to sprout out at me. I got fed up with it and hence did not save the proof you say I am lacking. That was a LONG time ago I wised up to you. Look to yourself because it is the biggest malarkey that these boards have ever not heard! We sicken each other...I am sure we can both agree to that one. And stupid yes...only because I once had the ignorance to talk to you and then delete your conversations. No insult there. As for the thread for my friend...I closed them all down because of an overwhelming sadness I felt at his loss. And to let those that CARED to know where he had disappeared to...not for unfeeling bastards such as yourself. As for loss...I have lost many, so do NOT have the temerity to tell me I have no idea. I know nothing of yours as you know nothing of mine. Tostito, enjoy your life. Enjoy putting people down and giving them hell.
