Poetry Contest

Offkey Thread Responses
Are you the kind of poster that is so unusual, that everyone rapidly disappears from the thread?

Your job, if you decide to accept, is to share your most off key thread killer
For all of us to cringe upon

Ready. Set. Glow!

Outcast Among Outcasts

I don't hold up well in public conversations
I have trouble thinking what to say and even worse, what not to say
I'm often distracted while pondering your impatience
The second I start talking you move on to something else
Like I'm just a pesky fly in your nightmares

Have one look at me and you'll see how I don't last long in conversations
Like an outcast among outcasts
It's not my scarred face but my lack of meaningful expressions
And it's fitting because nobody even cares
Their confusion is just a ruse that adds to my next hesitation
Making everyone check out of the conversation right then and there

Now when it comes to online writing I'm not much better
If I wrote about the peaceful sound of spring
Followed by a borrowed quote from Shan Xing
Would that be a good place to end everyone's suffering?
No!
Because it pains not only you but also me
In a more than likely hollow image of a translated silhouette
To see such brilliant words placed next to my cringe, wall of text

21st Century Spastic

I am 21st century spastic
No window licker
More a window smasher

Don’t believe the hype
No sweet thing here
Caustic through and through

Science put me in a box
The label doesn’t describe accurately
What’s inside

That’s the trouble
Perception breeds contempt
Assumptions mark the signposts ahead

If you look in my eye
I break the stereotype
A little more dangerous

Intelligence and anger
A combustible mix
Don’t dare feed the animal

Thank you! I really didn't expect that since the main topic is about forum posting. That was a tough theme. And I thought your entry was fantastic and worthy just the same.
