What is Poetry?

>> Good Poetry
Indirectly stating what you mean or directly stating something that parallels what you really mean. Adding depth and making the reader use their wit through parallels in indirect examples allows for powerful connections and is characterized as poetic writing. Commonly created by patience in organization and witty connections.

>> Cliche Poetry
Often misused and abuse by depressed teen girls (see self proclaimed genius) as they vent a conversation of themselves talking to about or to something that they have relationship problems with. They address the thing they have emotional conflicts with as "you", spoon feed their emotions, add some rhetorical questions, repetition, sometimes end rhyme, and call it a poem. (see venting tool) Common themes are, you don't know me, why are you so mean, definitions of; love, death, innocense, etc., you'll cry when I die, and you'll never understand me.

1. Listen to my venti...poetry ^^ I wrote it in 20 seconds, amn't I a genius!?
2. You goth, go write your poetry. Don't sit at our table.
3. That was great poetry! It really said many things between the lines and was very intelligently organized.

Poetry - what is it?

A scramble of words that may or may not make sense to the reader, but always means something to someone.

Poetry isn't excluded to any genre of emotions or audience ages.

FIRE AND ICE BY ROBERT FROST
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if I had to perish twice.
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.


WARNING BY SHEL SILVERSTEIN
Inside everybody's nose
There lives a sharp-toothed snail.
So if you stick your finger in,
He bite off your nail.
Stick it farther up inside,
And he might bite your ring off.
Stick it all the way, and he
May bite the whole darn thing off.

Poetry - what does it mean?

(n.) (not imit) - the sound an angry Asian mom makes when scolding her kids

Teacher: Where's your piece of poetry, Jonathan?
Jonathan:
Your nose will be red
Your eye will be blue
A cockroach you'll be as dead
When I beat you

Poetry - meaning

The art of unlocking oneโ€™s most restrained and repressed emotions before manipulating them for aesthetic purposes in a feeble, half-ass attempt, to get into some college freshmanโ€™s panties.

Verbal Ejaculation

Poetry is such bullshit,
Nothing truly profound could ever be put on paper.
Self-awareness? Who needs it!
All I ever do is end up crying anyway.
It's like the dehydration of an emotional masochist;
Invisible pain, evaporating joy.
Someone oughta build a dam on my stream of consciousness,
But where then would all the fish go to spawn?
Why does Jesus ask for so much faith?
Where is Allahโ€™s justice?
Yahweh hasnโ€™t written a book in two millennia.
Thereโ€™s too much order in the chaos.
My eyesight is failing; I fear I may soon go blind.
Not that thereโ€™s much worth seeing anyway.

Poetry - definition

a failed attempt to put a bunch of exceptions to the rules together. sounds way better when you can rhyme while writing poetry, but teachers these days don't seem to stress rhyming because it hurts to think to much.

I wrote poems on top of poems in 7th grade
Poetry, i can't stand it
i'd rather have a big fat zit

Poetry - slang

She is one of the most independent and quiet people youโ€™ll ever meet. Sheโ€™s shy and keeps her thoughts to herself at first but once you get to know her sheโ€™s amazing, bright, and very loyal when she wants something she gets it, but most of the time she over thinks things and she usually hesitates in the moment, She smart, talented, when she tells you something she really means it sheโ€™s kind hearted and selfless, very very dramatic. But donโ€™t let her shyness and kind heart Fool you she can be very bitchy at times, when she gets mad it takes her some time to get over the situation.

Guy 1: Damn why is Poetry so shy?
Guy 2: You have to get to know her, and once you do sheโ€™s the best person ever

Guy 2: whoever dates her theyโ€™re so lucky

Poetry

A useless subject that is merely an abstract art. Forced upon kids, this waste of time teaches children how to rhyme words in a specific rhythm.

Betty: ugh, I have to learn poetry. It's so useless!
Carl: Yeah, it's just a big waste of time.

Poetry

Used as a euphemism for Sex. Sexy sexy sex. Particularly between Arthur and Merlin. Term is used primarily as an excuse when others catch Merlin and Arthur in the act. Rarely works as everyone knows exactly what "poetry" Merlin is teaching Arthur.

Gwaine : Hey Leon, have you seen Merlin?

Leon : Yes. He was with Arthur. In the corridors. Alone.

Gwaine : What was their excuse this time?

Leon : Poetry.

Gwaine : They aren't fooling anyone.
