Poetry Contest

DUP drama mama!
It doesn't have to be funny, but it will be prefered.

Take all the drama from DUP and put it into a poem.
The threads are full of it.
Inspiration is everywhere.

Ideas:
Pick a thread.
Pick a conversation.
Summarize all of the threads.
Summarize all the conversations.
Personal feelings toward someone's actions.
Facts about someone's actions.
The overall actions of DUP in general.
It is up to you as long as it has to do with DUP.
Free range.

The drama can be pulled from anything past or present.
You can use anything you want or anyone you want.

My only rule is:
There are not to be any personal attacks on anyone. You can only attack their behavior. Should there be such personal attacks, all entries made by the attacker will be removed, and will disqualify them from participaitng in the comp.

I am making this competition one month long because I know that more inspiration will arise in the threads in that amount of time.

If you have any questions, PM me. If you feel that you were personally attacked, and I haven't already seen it, PM me.

If you have a problem with something someone said, respond with a poem, or PM them!

Praise is welcomed, arguing and mindless chatter is not.

Have fun!




EDIT: Everyone is welcomed to join. I will judge this objectively.

There is plenty to choose from. Nice idea trying to find humor in the insanity of some people's actions.

THREAD AFTER THREAD

It's a brain drain overload
filling the pages we share
Monty Pythonesque insanity
seeing the ones you ensnare

Your persona is tired
though you do give many grins
crushing on anything
as you boastfully slither in

Twist it around
and deflect from truth
Easy to veer
from irrefutable proof

Life is for living
it's good to see you smile
Stop with the abusing
let your horny rest a while

I jest and tease as well
adults can have some fun
comes down to being real
when all the words are spun

Step away and breathe deep
fresh air gives a new view
I'd like to walk forum floors
without needing shoes

Blogging
Type search
Protection
Words seem to bounce of our paper shields
Until its said just right
Then you see the venom rise
Like steam in the morning on dew grass
The critics and spectators join in
Adding a little of their own seasoning
Giulty tears cloud my eyes
As I know I've done wrong this time
Forgiveness and peace is what I want, but these angry thought seem to haunt
A war this is not
This is life, with a love for something new
Poetry is why we're here
So of the BS
Lets stay clear

"8 minutes and 22 seconds About Hours of Nothing"


I think the foundations were solid once
when the focus was shared and guided.

The cracks are becoming more focal,
more visible on every digital page.

I see skeletons clattering from dead meat
and piling higher at the bottom
of a once viewable recent discussions.

Kids spill blood about too much sun
and how the moon is the only whore who hears
and they want salvation from a full lunchbox.

I see masks of people that cannot be seen
as they type with an army of usernames
because the ones that count, turn their heads.

There's a rain of shit burying this place
and I must submerge my single name
to read some fuckin' poetry.

Lies, Jealousy, and Deciet
There once was a time
When the log on screen was so welcoming
Friendly Salutations to the pen family
Discussions on the border line
Of humor and similarities
Friendship blossomed like a Spring Daisy
Until the storm rolled in
Discriminative
Hypocrite
Envious
Rage
Threw over the palace
And barred hope away in a cage

With this newborn feeling
We all turned against one another
Out anger turned worse
As we attracked the innocent
And gave honor to the guilty liars
I admit my wrongs
I beg for shame
For I deserve this
Let you see
I lost the good intentions
For a moment, the mind loses focus
And we lose control
Over our tongues (keyboards)

"9 unread messages"

audio not for the faint of heart: http://soundcloud.com/jesta-thelessa/9-unread-messages

So, I'm supposed to be on hiatus, right?
But like, I check back to see if anybody needs me
and when I see
-9 unread messages-
I'm all, "woohoo!"
Then, "whatdafuck? nobody loves me this much."
And um, a part of me hopes it's at least one of my favourite people ever right now
[There's one especially. Two... maybe three.]
Because, y'know, I totally love the DUP and [y]our crap writing and [y]our genius
and some of you are better friends than I have in real life, so like
I check, right?

And it's not even the leppero.
[And we're pretty tight.]

I'm okay with that actually too, I mean
I dig helping out and feeling needed and all that shit
and being the 'go to gal' if ya'll need something dealt with.
But gossipy whispery [whsh-whsh-whsh] and personal grievance is ya'll's business
not the site's, and seriously, like.... I'm supposed to be on hiatus.
And even if I completely love you guys, you gotta know
I was disappointed, more than a little, that there was NOTHING
from my heart-stop / fuck-me-darlin' / runaway-forever man.
After like, 10 days of no contact and DU withdrawal symptoms plaguing my life and pathetic brainspan.
So, fuck you, 9 unread messages NOT from him.
And all this drama has been a blast, kay?
But it's like watching my siblings fight over an RPG
and I want some peace injected back into our DUP.
Some might be justified in calling me a ditzy hippie
but really, we should just get back to our bad fookin' poetry.

*deep breath*

Who wants to be the king or queen
and where the fuck has Muggle been?
all this time still not a word
has any one heard from the muglette?
don't tell me.. she's preggers too
ahh violet!
it won't be too long now for you
There'll be no more for me, nah fuck that shit
I think a dog or a cat might do it


well...

Do you still believe in heaven and hell
should I throw in the tooth fairy as well
oh! I know!do you think it's all conspiracy
to keep us afraid of our own shadows
that said though, maybe there's a ghost around
haunting this crazy underground.

can you hear?

"I'm not sure why I wanna cry
maybe I'll just curl up and die
and leave a long and drawn out note
don't forget to cast your vote!"

where the fuck is St Patrick when you need him!!

yeah I think he's needed
I think some snakes have met and breed-ed
some deep seeded venomous hate
is it too late to save the realm
from shit talking belly walking
single cells

Hot wax anyone? must admit it sounds like fun!
who would like an enormous fatty?
slap the flesh and ride the ripples
or get some metal in the nipples,the eye,the clit
yeah that's it,a piercing of the clit
that's sure to sex up the shit

aww girl you gone give me blushes  
with this talk of mushy crushes  
oh! well, I got a crush for you
and you! and you! and you! and you!

so what so you like having for brekkie
and do you prefer Starwars
or are you a Trekkie
 
should I stay, should I go  
does anybody really care though
at the end of the day
if I just packed up and went my own way

well just remember this,a kiss is just a kiss
a hiss is just a hiss
whoever's right there's no one better
there are no kings there are no queens
there are no saints from what I've seen
and I've seen lot's I have to say  
but i'll leave that for another day.

Eamonn out.
