Who here would consider that they have talent?

Message me with your responses, I won't be returning to this thread.

pretty sure the vast majority of DU expects they have some decent talent. [:

Bye Bye Ricky.

If you don't plan on returning to your thread, then don't start it in the first place--there's already enough mindless, useless clutter in the forums from all the spammers and fly-by-night members who frequent this website.  If you'd like to be a productive member here, activities to participate in, include  working on your writing skills, adding useful, thoughtful critique to the work of others, and participating in the forums with at least a semi-intelligent mindset.

So welcome to DUP

Nobody's Perfect


Can't come to grips with the fact that I'm average
I should do the whole world a favor
And take one step off this ledge

I could end it all now

No one would miss me anyhow

But the voice inside me says,
Nobody's Perfect

Pissing on the third rail
In the subway station
Would be a one way ticket to salvation

But the voice inside says to me
What they all fail to see
Nobody is Perfect

That's me

You're all jealous
Secretly pining to be in my shoes
Just because I got talent
Ignore me if you so choose
You can't deny
The depth of my brilliance
As hard as you try
I won't let you
No, I won't let you

You can hold your breath
Until your face turns blue
I won't let you
No, I won't let you

Look at me, look at me
Thrashing about madly
The center of your universe
Defying all gravity
Like a black hole
Sucking you in
And never letting go
Until you finally admit
What everyone should already know

I'm maybe Nobody
But Nobody's Perfect
No one else is Perfect
That's me

Dismiss me all you want
It's just more incentive to flaunt
That no one else is Perfect
Like me

Excuse me while I blatantly
Shamelessly promote
My own poetic genius
Lyrical note for note
Never mind what it was
That I actually wrote
It's not very important
Next to a popularity vote

Keep your eyes on the prize
On me and you will realize
What the whole world
Has been missing out on
What it tried to disguise
Camouflaged
Amongst the average
Lost in the ordinary
Where no one is special
That's where you'll find me

I'm maybe Nobody
But Nobody's Perfect
No one else is Perfect
That's me

I'll guess that a copy of this was given to him in PM. He won't see it on the thread.

Heck, let's ALL send him a copy. lol

Me, I'm unbelievable. Read my poems, they'll change your life. Please don't send me any money, inspiring you is thanks enough.

Seriously, no more money, guys, my accountant is having a heart attack. I'm not allowed to post any new poems until next tax quarter.

People tell me I have talent, whether or not I believe them depends on the poem they've chosen to compliment, very few of them are my 'pride and joy' as it were.

WOW!!... That's my poem...hope you like it.

I would say that I have a bit of talent.

I can eat more pancakes in one sitting than anyone I.know
