Here can be found the greatest library on the internet - the works of the contemporaries and also the classics.

I thought this one best spoke to me personally.

Sure there's a good deal of spelling mistakes and incoherent phrases, as well as a general lack of direction in most of the poems, but once you get around that I'm sure you'll come to enjoy them.


edit - loooool

Deeper and deeper, why can't I feel?
I need to know if this is real.

I wrote this poem for Zorantiz about a week ago and I've been too shy to post it because I was afraid of how he would react. However, I got some advice from a gay friend of mine named John and he told me not to hold back because I only live once. So here it goes... I love you Zorantiz.

I use words to depict a penis
Large, pulsing, sweaty, beautiful
Does this turn you on?

I will be gentle so never fear
Young, timid, innocent, cute
Are you still afraid?

I lust to be inside you
Tight, warm, moist, safe
Have I won you over?

I want our love to grow
Forever, eternity, undying, true
Will you marry me?

I want our complete solitude
Me, you, alone, together
Can we run away?

I want to die together
Old, content, smiling, observing
Do you want the same?

I am one with you
Souls, spirits, minds, hearts
Benandzorantiz.

[Zorantiz]

I love you too.

lets take a deeper look at the poets work.

Poems can have many forms. Some forms are strictly defined, with required line counts and rhyming patterns, such as the sonnet or limerick. Such poems exhibit closed form. Others (which exhibit open form) have less structure or, indeed, almost no apparent structure at all. This appearance, though, is deceptive: successful open form poems are informed throughout by organic structure which may resist formal description but is nonetheless a crucial element of the poem's effect on the reading mind. In this case, the poet chooses to employ an open form of poetry, with not much of a rhyme scheme, but good syllable and stanza structure nonetheless.

Most poetry can be read on several levels. The surface is not necessarily the essence of the poem although in some cases there is little beyond the immediate. Allegory, connotation and metaphor are some of the subtler ways in which a poet communicates with the reader. Although our poet doesnt give any direct comparisons through the use of similies or metaphors, the poet is effective in comparing several other devices of his emotion. every second line in each paragraph is full of descriptive words, creating a device we call imagery. BenandMolly clearly felt strongly about what he was describing

Analyzing diction and connotation — the meanings of words as well as the feelings and associations they carry — is a good place to start for any poem. The use of specific words in the poem serve to create a tone — an attitude taken towards the subject. For example, consider the words "penis" and "pulsing." When used in a poem, the words conjure up images of a snake. The sibilant s sound reinforces the image. The connotations of the words suggest something surreptitious and undercover. From the tone, one can infer that the author is suspicious or fearful of the subject and at the sametime, excited about the unknown that the future holds.Through the use of descriptive words, the poet is able to express his feelings towards his lover, in this case a "zorantiz" is the object of his affection.
