Poetry

[nineiron7786]

I have been writing for a while now, to post them all here would take too long, I can however provide a link for anyone who is interested in reading my works.



Hope they are enjoyed by all, the styles range from Love to mood to symbolistic and observant.

Thanks so much for this wonderful site and the wonderful people here!

Edit: link was removed from post, but you may add your link to your signature line.

I read quite a few...

Nice presentation.

Welcome and I assume you have a whole set of sticks, Mr Nineiron.

*FORE*

Would be best if you chose a few of your favorites and posted them for us to read. And it's a better way to get feedback.

 

[nineiron7786]

Thankyou for welcoming me, I will do that. I am really not after feedback or praise, my works are by no means perfect or good. I only want to offer the opportunity for people from here to look at my poems if they so wish.

 

[Sabina_Tolchovsky]

Don't post it if you don't want us to comment...that's like telling a five year old they can't have a lollipop and then eating one right in front of them.

<what's the point? don't be a weenie>

Aw bummer. Didja have to remove that link, mods? Was it 'orribly spammy?

Seriously. Do I dare to hyperlink at all?

Well, yes!
We really are suppose to put our links in the sig lines and not make threads advertising our sites. If I made a thread about the habit--which is in my sig line, just below what I'm writing, no, further down, look down there and click--then someone would have a hissy. So shut yo mouth, biscuit boy!

 

[nineiron7786]

Note:

Ahh, one understands. I am showing this is my 2nd day here for sure!

I wasnt advertising anyway, just offering but thankyou for the advice, i will follow.

PS, its my homepage anyway so you can get to it that way

I don't have hissys!!!!!!!

Seriously, who would throw a fit about a poetry relevant URL on a poetry forum? Raise yer hands, people.

So a thread on the theme of "here is my new online poetry mag that I started: [Link] Let me know what y'all think" will be neutered? If we're consequent, it should. And correct me if I'm wrong, but that doesn't seem to be the common practice.

Just sayin'.

Ask Lauren. She knows more. If she says it's cool to start a thread about your poetry, with the link posted, then fine. I know that I once (years ago) had a poetry contest on the board and featured the winner on my site (link was included) and someone complained, and Laurel herself removed it. Better yet, ask Laurel about this. Maybe it's okay for us all to post threads with our links. If so, I'll start a thread about my site and offer links to the pages I want you to all look at. I do know in the guidelines, it says we should post links to our personal sites in the sig line. But what do I know? Really? I'm a confused poetry whore.

 

[nineiron7786]

Thanks so much for all the help, my poems mean a lot to me. I will take the effort to post my favorites on here soon.

Thanks again all,

Nine

If you're not afraid to now, then please do.
I would like to see what you write and which ones mean the most to you.

Forever Yours

Forever yours
I'm forever yours
Bound into your life

Safety I feel blanketing my body
Now I have just found
That I'm part of you

Synthetic Time

My love for you is staying the same
Never slows but never grows
I'm bound into your life

Everywhere I turn
Soulless objects broadcast the fact
I am yours

The prison walls build around my freedom
Brick by brick they are raised
Rise to block my view

Claustrophobic vultures circle in my mind

I try to lift the sledge hammer
It's too heavy

I can read the writing on it

"Forever mine"

Child of the wind

In a rage it blows
Through a gap in the window
Or any way to sneak
To wile its path of chill

With no eyes it searches round
An inescapable haunting
That dwells on sills
Prowls the halls

Born from the beast
That rattles the roof tiles
A child
A clone

This babe born to the beast
Swirls
Twists and whirls
In places untouched by its blood

In bed a child shivers and fears
The bite which is one of ice
But the nightmares of beasts in the sky
Haunt the hours in which we sleep

Child of the wind is an interesting read.

 

[Lauren Hynde]

Ask Lauren. She knows more.

LOL

In my professional opinion, The Wicked proceeded correctly. We're supposed to do what she did, and when she did the same, Laurel did remove her thread. When I first saw this thread, I considered editing out the link as well, but then, seeing as nineiron is a new guy and didn't sound at all like a spammer, I decided it would be - let's say more diplomatic to simply post welcoming him and telling him that it's not very considerate to the owners of Lit to ask us to go somewhere else to read his poetry, and that he should post some of his favourites here.

So, welcome to Literotica, nineiron. I'm glad you decided to share your poetry here and I hope you enjoy your stay.

Oh, if you change your mind about comments, feedback, critique, and if you're not too thin-skinned and are interested in some harsh love to help you grow as a poet, pay a visit to our Poetry Discussion Circle subforum.

I'm not diplomatic. I am the evil mod. Lauren is really the sweet one. I know. I was shocked, too.

 

[Lauren Hynde]

I'm not sweet, I'm just ill. lol

 

[WickedEve]

I'm not sweet, I'm just ill. lol

You're too young and cute to be sick.

 

[nineiron7786]

Thanks for the welcome, I will respect that rule now I understand. I may not post here for critique but that is not saying it is not allowed. Thanks again,

Nine
