Do some of these things bother you too?

Question

Oddity

By Semper Fi Reborn

It bothers me

When a a prodigy

Is considered an oddity

Or some one commits art larceny

Artistic rape is far from me

I must ask you to pardon me

Or make a bargain we

Can jointly agree

So my pen doesn't lose it's desire to pee

Ink on paper, see?

I call it poetry

You know it's me

No prodigy

An oddity

Answer 1

Your fine poem echoes the way I feel. As a teacher and a writer, I have stuggled with many of the thoughts you express.

Answer 2

In order for you to put such beauty on paper you must have a wonderful and peaceful life.  The words flow like love, that is the only way I can describe it.  You have a talent that is beyond reasoning.  This one sets the paper on fire.

Peace & Love  :)

Answer 7

Dear Semper,

God bless you In the world of internet, voice mail, e-mail writing has become almost a lost forgotten art. I also write has well sayings things from the Bible and I have written some prose as well. There is nothing wrong with being different or odd we as a nation spend too much time. money and obsessing with what hollywood and the media and entertainment are doing that we forget to LIVE and ENJOY life.

Thank you for this reminder. Keep up the good work with the poetryy and peace be with you e4g
