it would help give me a little peice of mind...

[lovinleo]

i am a wrighter, but since my friend died in april of this year i have not written at all. i final picked up a pen and wrote a poem to her, hopeing she will forgive me even though i know she was never and will never be mad. it would really help if you all could go to the poetry/writing section and read and comment on it. it is under the title "a poem to a friend". if you all could do that i think it would help give me a peice of mind because this is the first time i really expressed my feelings. i will also say, throughout writing the poem, posting it, and writing this little message i have been crying and i have not cryed since her funeral, and i only cried during her funeral. so please, at least read it, and mabey it will teach all of you to never forget the little things, even when you are not around them, and to never lose touch with ppl who have helped you, even in the smallest ways.

I'm on it...

i am a wrighter

I know I'm an ass for saying this, but really, you're a "wrighter"? Is your shift key broken as well? Am I out of line "ppl"? Go on, hate me... But a "peice" of mind? wouldn't that be a surgical procedure? I don't think anyone here is qualified for that, although some of us may own a dictionary... :D

You sir are an evil man. :cheers:

[StellaBlue]

I'm with you toman...i don't post much on here, but I read all the time. I thought the same thing when I read it. Cheers, toman.

[lovinleo]

im sorry that i said "i'm a writer" i guess it's not the right thing to say because i am not a pro writer that gets paid for what i do. and for a peice of mind, well i do not mean in the medical way and i didn't think that anyone would find that the thing to pick at with what i posted. but we can all think what we think, but i guess i will not express any feelings like i usaly do, so i will stop doing it all together. thank you for leting me figure that out.

Leo.
You really should not take too much offense. A lot of us are bad at spelling and even more at grammer. I think the language arts are badly neglected in schools these days. Just take the comments as constructive criticism and move on. If you really enjoy something, you should always be working to improve anyway. As for your poem it was lovely and heart-felt. I'm sure your friend appreciates it. I'm very sorry for your loss. :group_hug

constructive criticism

I think not! I have no clue how old this person is, but regardless, he/she is a pure, shining example of the fucking retardedness this supposedly beautiful nation has produced! I mean no offense to the individual, though I'm sure some is taken, but when one's neighbor grows fruit that looks pretty but tastes like shit, the neighbor and the community must step back and first laugh, then solve the problem. Forgive me for taking pleasure in another's misfortune, (I'm not religious, thankfully, so I don't feel bad) but this has to be some of the finest comedy the internet has ever produced. If it continues, I believe I will require immediate medical attention! :D

Myself not wanting to appear a monster...... you an already critically acclaimed monster. So what the hell, we'll be nice to the next poster.... hahahahahahah...no wait....ahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! Okay now stop... no I can't, there's more....ahahahahaahahah......heh. Now I be evil too :D ;)

[LIBRA]

Exactly how I felt, let Toman take the blame,lol he always does anyway but just when you thought it was ok to laugh a little WHAMO laugh some more!!!!!!

[NCW_Woodnymph]

I think sad is a lot more accurate to the situation than funny. If it was an isolated incident then it would be hilarious but it's not. I really think the general population is getting stupider. What may be funny for our generation is going to mean real trouble for our children. I have to admit I did laugh at a "wrighter" misspelling the word but, as blatant as the problem was, I don't think this was an appropriate time to point it out. If someone wants to start a new thread on the general stupidity of people I'd be happy to rant with the rest of you.

[PEACE FROG]

Nymph you are correct. ;) And I apologize to the young lady who wrote the poem. Leo I'm sorry. I did like your poem and I can get behind the sentiment you were trying to express. But you gotta see the humor in what we are saying. :D

[lovinleo]

i completly see the humor, but i don't think it had to be draged out as much as it has been. i put my self out there with this poem, esp such a personal one. mabey it is a lesson to me to not do that at all, even though i rarely do. thank you for at leaste reading what i have wrote.

We dont get much humor around here, so when we do, it tends to always drag on. But I am sorry, you poem was great and the point was well taken. I hope you continue to post more poems.

[redthewitch75]

Here I am, a little late, to drag this out...I am with Toman on this. This is one of my pet peeves. I can't stand spelling/grammatical errors. At work, I couldn't stand it when my friend Gen would start the notes, as she can't spell or use proper grammar for shite, I would completely restart the notes. I mean, come on...she has a degree in English. That's pretty pathetic. I mean, there's a difference between a random mistake here or there and something written with numerous errors. One should NEVER call themselves a writer and not even be able to spell WRITER...sorry. That's just my opinion... :D Of course, there are plenty of writers capable of spelling, who shouldn't call themselves writers!

Aside from that...kudos to you, Lovinleo, for opening yourself up to criticism and rejection and all of the b.s. that comes with publicly baring your soul. Take it all in stride. While I think your poem could use some polishing, this is not a forum where I should be doing so. I suggest joining eliteskills.com if you are serious in your writing ambition. :D
