Another really nice piece...
stupot0607;2763040 said:Thanks Draft, props on the feedback, ill always welcome suggestions or critisism if you have any.
i actually agree it does flow better like that. i might change it cause i got it saved on a word doc on my computer.
It's not a track, its off the film V for Vendetta, the whole "god is in the rain" scene, really great scene in a great movie. it was stuck in my head all throughout writing this poem haha
i just didnt want to use it cause its on the film. i wanted to be original and didnt want to rip it off.
RuffDraft;2764174 said:Props, I've not seen the film, but I'll check it out if you rate it :tu Definitely a nice poem though and always good to be inspired through film. Must be great to have that sort of free time to really sit down and transpire your creativity... I always find I'm working. This summer holiday I'm planning on writing a children's book based around two characters in a rainforest... but until then, I find it hard to be creative unless I'm going through some 'ish.
How long you been writing poetry for?
stupot0607;2764352 said:Yeah its a great film, i think being english it makes it better aswell haha
This poem really wasnt inspired by the film, that movie quote was just stuck in my head because i was writing it, i actually just got inspiration from my room. but still defo check out the film.
That book sounds creative haha, you got a publisher lined up? or is it at drawing board level?
I Been writing poetry for 2 days now haha, yesterdays "No Great War For Our Generation" being my official first piece. although i got note pads of random lyrics that have just popped in my head and HAD to write them down. and a couple of wack verses here and there, but i never went out to write a poem until this weekend. im saving them all on my computer on word doc's, gonna start a library of them.
Azekiel-Horizon;2763898 said:Nice piece of poetry. V for Vendetta is one of my favorit movies and the scene you are talking about it is one of the best scenes in the movies. It had a sort of liberating vibe to it and so does this poem.
RuffDraft;2764411 said:haha see... I'm more American when it comes to films! But some English films are good... as are the drama's... but I'm def Americanised... for better or worse.
Ahhh okay, I'll check the film out and then I'll be able to relate... but you really drew upon the senses well, so props :tu
haha, nah, it's at drawing board level completely. It's just an idea I got... won't share too much with you yet, but when it's done and I try to get a publisher and if I manage to (or if I more likely fail!), I'll share it with you. Basically it's going to be funny because one is a true leader and the other is a coward and I've been working on humour between characters and I think it can pay off... but yeah, I'd share more ideas with you in a p.m about it. By the way, I'm leaving for 5 days (no Internet access) as of the morning, so The Essence may be quiet but feel free to keep it going as best you can, I'd appreciate it as I think with you and Dilla as well as Trae, we're starting to garner a few more posters.... so props.
hahaha ohhh okay, well, you should stick with it, you have good promise!! I do the same, word docs on my Mac. But I write sporadically, I'm not gifted, I generally just write when I'm feeling pressure or pain LOL. But keep sharing :tu
Catch up with you next weekend :tu Keep posting in The Essence!! :tu

poignant??? yes..
my fav lines...
Nature came first and then came my birth,
The rain is a perfect instrumental to my life,
Constantly in the background ready for me to lay my vocals,
A running commentary on me and my hopefuls.
Young-Ice;2790257 said:I like it a lot. Only thing i would say, is maybe take a few unnecessary words out, or refrain from using them in future poems. Lyrically, i loved it. Nothing i would change. But some of your feet were a bit lengthy and broke the rhythm of the poem. At least to me.
Well done though. I enjoyed this.
stupot0607;2784083 said:Thanks Tupacfan,
