You guys here always seem to criticize poetry without writing it yourselves, so I'd like to test your hand at such a skill.. I'll start a poem, and anyone else here, feel free to add on to see if you can form something meaningful. That is, if you're brave enough.
Rules: Everyone must post four lines per stanzas. No personal attacks on the other persons stanza, meaning STICK TO THE THEME as best you can. Let's see if you can really write poetry.
POEMS THAT ADD MEANING
A silent tremble made me crave the delicacies of life
Shaking my computer and soft, swivelling chair.
Does this really mean anything at all, I thought,
The message I want to send stranded in this epicenter here?

Oh lord I ask for you to forgive
and guide me through incoherent narratives
for I know not what I do and say
screw it,I'll post it anyway |

But, AKA,
You only wrote 1 stanza. Did you mean we should write 4 lines per stanza? |

They vigorously scoop and sift
Rattling through my fictions.
It is to no avail, but next time
They may use clumping litter.
See?!!! You're not alone in your poetic talent.  |

Well anyway, the day turned out clear
Pasted with plastic white clouds like the comics I read
As to why I'm here, in between the computer
And the swivel of a soft, safe chair. |
