Why do you write poetry? (for all the poets that post in here)

[AllstarKing]

I write poetry because its ill...its good way of kicking knowledge and letting out. when i do it i forget bout all the crazyness in the world....im originally a rapper but switched to poetry after i heard the first 2 chainz track....where can i post some my stuff on here.

 

[yeery]

I got a problem where lines and words accumulate in my head. If I dont write them down or at least piece them together I get headaches. I'm usually bored when it happens so Im more than likely at home by the computer. Im high on myself and think every word I say is golden so I share my greatness with the world.

honestly,

I don't know..

Their's a reason why we write, express ourselves and I'd like to know when did you started writing? what inspired you to write? post one of your favorite lines or one of your favorite poems?

I used to write and perform because I had something to say, and I wanted to mobilize people to action.

I became disillusioned with the who genre of politico lit when it dawned on me people are comfortable

just being entertained by words, they arent convicted to organize and move.

I still write in my head, havent put anything on paper or performed in about 5 years.

I can relate. I haven't perform in a long time. I can write in my thoughest thinking but i haven't been writing them down.

 

[Tupacfan]

I write poetry to tell stories and for expression. A lot of my inspiration for my poems come from my own life experiences, or conversations I've had with others. BTW, I'm new here, but I hope that I can post some of my poetry on here soon, if that's okay.

That's how i started out. Using life experiences.. It was very theraputic for me.

Absolutely you can post your stuff here.. Your more than welcome to

 

[Tupacfan]

i write poetry to break free from monotny and to travel the universe

*Waves at desolateone*

likewise...

 

[Tupacfan]

honestly,

I don't know..

Lol. Start finding a purpose dammit! J/p

I hear you though

 

[gshan]

poetry is the best way to express own emotions painting with literal devices.

In song you can clear your thought, but in poetry You'll clear your thoughts even in a better gratification.

Life experiences crisis is inspiration at times

Thats some real talk Sovo, I wish my writing had that emotion in it

The only way to put more emotion into your writing is to feel more pain. and thats not something to look forward to.

if i would ever allow myself to let go and flow my shit, i could make it a job. thats the part im afraid of.

i have a big cousin who does it for a living, and he dont even know how much i idolized him while growing up, or, how much better than him I am.

and he's a facebook friend of mine. But if he ever comes home, and we have a family get together, its gonna be "on!"

“Certified Proof” July,23rd,2013

We’re all”decision-maker’s”some of us are real and other’s are fueled by the vapor’s;I have a myriad of ladyfriend’s that I have yet to address about”us”and what could be and what they won’t ever see.I focus on what you say to”me”and”consistency”,the true sistas will(prevail)and the fake one’s stay done.

I can’t force you to”be”what you’re not ready to embrace&see”mentally”:

Some ladies may ask”what about you”??I’m a loyal&true Sunni ndugu,I’m not here for second or third place,I’m here for the one who was built&created who took first and can’t be faded!!!She’s a reflection of”me”we’re not perfect but we wisely select.

I’m not here to name name’s or play”monopoly”Certified proof allow’s me to size you up&see,my auntie(wannita)asked me what’s going on with you??You’re solo and out of character where’s your boo??My past isn’t perfect and 2013 I wisely select what’s best,so it’s a calculated process;

Certified proof reveal’s”The Truth”I shake my head in disbelief when Allah show’s”me”what I need to see,I’m here to”help”and not be’used”I’m here to”win”and not”lose”:

This is a universal process that I have chosen to address,so that includes your sexual orientation&ethnicity who you really are that’s what I’m gonna see.

“Check yourself”before we meet because your”body language”and”decision-making”will speak;Some might think I’m to”deep”but I’m only”writing”to”teach”the truth&clarity is what you need to seek:

All of my work(define’s me)and with Allah’s guidance&help I stay rooted in a universal reality(definition??)with or without”me”;I’ve had my turn and this is what I’ve learned,and it’s true because”Certified Proof”reveal’s”you”!!!!

Salaam,Bro.Mark X(aka)”D”Minus;

 

[D33 M!NUS]

Your sexual orientation&ethnicity on that one part.
