Change

Contributed by Necromant on Thursday, 15th January 2004 @ 05:25:40 PM in AEST
Topic: oops






“In life we have to change
We have to start growing,
We have to start being mature,
We get to know more people,
But we have to forget about the others,
We have to loose our innocence.

We have to change our costume,
From the guiltless little child
To the fragile old man,
In our life we will change
Our costume for many times,

For how long will we need to change?


I know this poem sucks but wanted to post it anyway :P

Poetry comes from within and paints a picture for others to see. How you paint that picture is your choice. Never be sorry for what you write, it is a part of who you are and you're willing to share makes you an artist in my eyes.

Besides, I liked it...

We're always changing... evolving, transforming into who we'll be tomorrow. Life is one lesson after another, and i doubt we'll ever have all the answers.

Good poem, enjoyed this,
~ Wendy

I like this poem. An excellent question without a standard answer--the poem conveyed your thoughts well--it doesn't suck like you think it does.

Well, it's not too odd a thing to for me to notice when one considers I'm transgender, but I noticed a lack of parallelism in a pair of lines...

"From the guiltless little child
To the fragile old man,"

To clean this up, the term "boy" could have been paired with "old man," or "child" could have been paired up with "old person" (...or perhaps "old fart?"--hee-hee! Hmm. Thinking about it, "old fart" actually would fit when one considers that being an old fart usually means one is resistant to change.).

Anyway, getting back to a serious note, using gender nuetral or gender specific words consistantly would have made the lines "parallel."

I know, I know, you wrote this when you were fourteen... I'm being pretty picky in my comments to a fourteen year old version of you! Just food for thought though--Mighty good poem anyway!

Sorry hon this didn't exactly suck. In fact it was rather good. Your style has just gotten better so you think it sucked. It was a good write and held the truth about things.

Very interesting poem. I found it brought back memories of my teenage years . . . and a same kind of anxiety.
Good write.
Not sucky.

Well this poem doesn't suck at all. It envelopes a very important question in it. I think it is a good thing to think about things first before indiscriminately accepting it.
Good work!
