Big Dumb Rocket.

There seems to be a rocket sitting in the pad.
It sits there doing nothing it makes the scientists mad.
I wonder why it does this?
I wonder why it will not go?
Maybe its brain, is working very slow?
The Big dumb rocket sits there not, doing anything.
The Big dumb rocket sits there not moving.
If only the big green monkey
Sitting in its tree would help the engineers
To make the rocket go!
Big Dumb Rocket sitting in the pad.
Big dumb rocket that is acting really bad.

Okay, well, if you are attempting a serious poem i have a few things you should consider (and i am assuming you would want to do free verse).
Do not be cliche, have an original idea.
Use lots of metaphors to help make the experience more life like and emotional. I once did a poem where everyline was a metaphor about the title that was a metaphor. I know it seems crazy, but even though it is hard to figure out, my teachers have claimed that they could feel the emotion and parts were even moving.
Other then that, try to make it flow. Crappy rhyme schemes sometimes make for crappy poems, unless there is an obvious reason why it does not flow properly.
I cannot say if you have any flaws, because i do not remember you ever attempting a serious poem before. So seeing you come up with a serious poem would help me point out any flaws you may have. It is hard to compare odd, humouress, or dark poetry with a serious poem.
I cant wait to read it though.

Writer's Guild:writer
I love writing and expressing my self and i have a few great ideas for some games and some movies that will rock the portal. I'd like so share a few with you now(okay only 1 but is that so bad?)
Title: PhyGuild
Desciption: It's an anime, but can be animated any way we like, about two girls who are both telekenetics and their sturgules when some bad guy(haven't figured most of him out yet) attacks one of their hometown's/guild. They go off on a long and tresturius journey to save her guild. A race against time, a battle against evil, and a blossuming love conection between our two telekenetics..

Good ideas here, I like the idea of the two swords, I saw something like that in a book I read. One sword was normal, but the other one glowed with a purple flame that grew brighter the more angered its wielder. He called it Twinkle. Remember Frodo's Sword sting? It glowed blue when Orcs were around, I think you could do something with this glowing trend. Or maybe you like to do something different.

Anybody every think of doing anything to a King Crimson song? If you've never heard of king crimson you should get somehow "21'st Century Schizoid Man" "I Talk to the Wind" "Epitaph" and "In the Court of the Crimson King". Excellent trippy brit prog. rock from the late 60's. If somebody with good enough skill wants to make a flash inspired by this music talk to me (aim: powerballad87) and we cen discuss.

newbman I love ur idea and have been inspired allot by telekenetic heros, I would love to work on this project with u maybe bye doing some sketches of the characters. I've been experimenting a little lately with anime and manga.
Captain-T I also like the idea for the two swords of good and evil, I actually sort of got it from a game I have, I cannot remember the name of the game but the two swords had the powers of the sun and the moon. I'll try some more sketches tomorrow but its getting late right now.
OrionMX I've never heard of those songs before but they sound interesting. I dont feel safe IMing though due to my recent spyware incident but I would feel much safer talking over the BBS. I wonder if there is a way to post quiktime or windows media player files in the forum?
Wow I replied to three people!!!

AWsome I'd love to work with you, actualy i have some drwings of them my-self, ut i can't use flash enough to animate them, as soon as i get a scanner set up, i'll put um' on for you to take a look at. If your planning on working on this with me, i'd like you to know that i'm planning for it to be decently long, a series, and if your animation is as good as the story needs it's going to be a hit. Well c ya around, hope you join me, it's gonna be a blast!

Tp keep you sane and relieve your boredom, read this story of meine.

-Isd pissed.-

Oda Takahishi drew his katana, directing the archers to fire upon the approaching enemy. White fletched arrows soared like birds into the air, landing subtly upon their foes. Many writhed in agony for a few brief seconds, others simply died instantly, and fewer still gritted their teeth and persisted through the rain of death. Imagawa’s Yari samurai were slowly approaching the thin line of Yellow Mon wearing Naginata troops, the Oda Mon proudly waving in the air as a second volley of sweet death was showered over the crowd of blue. “Damnation, where are those Cavalry?!” Takahishi cried, gritting his teeth in barely controlled anger at his Uncle’s lack of intuition and speed. 60 Naginata samurai and 120 archers were all that stood against hundreds of Imagawa’s foot troops, with a further 60 riflemen marching towards the lightly defended position. “Hold fast! The relief will be here soon!” shouted the young Lt. General.

Oda Nobuhide, Daimyo of the Oda clan, calmly directed his force onward, a huge group of several different cavalry units. He had correctly predicted that Yoshimoto would be impatient to begin, smiling as he saw almost all of the Imagawa infantry charging the ‘bait’. The bait in question was the Daimyo’s young nephew, Oda Takahishi, a good warrior but lacking any thought of strategy. Brandishing his katana and wakizashi, Nobuhide sped up his horse, rounding the last hill as he directed his units into charge formation.

Takahishi picked himself up from the ground, swinging his sword in an upward slash against his assailant. In a shower of crimson liquid, he felled the Yari armed samurai, quickly bringing his shorter sword forward into the armour of another. The wakizashi sank deep between the steel plates, pushing folds of cloth and flesh aside as the blue armoured man squealed in pain. The young samurai quickly decapitated his opponent in a mercy blow, turning his gaze over the field. Things weren’t going good. The Naginata warriors were all but dead, and the hordes of Yari samurai were smashing into his archer’s lines. Worse yet, blood red silhouettes of the feared No-Dachi samurai were closing in on Takahishi’s formation, with no sign of Nobuhide’s cavalry relief in sight. “If I am to die here, then I’ll go down fighting” he swore out loud, taking a moment to catch his breath before charging into the swirling mass of warriors.

“Forward! Charge the enemy’s flanks!” A low grow filled the air, like thunder, as hundreds of armoured cavalry smashed into the No-Dachi ranks, sword and spear cutting them down in droves. Oda Nobuhide brought his katana down upon the head of a unit leader, cutting apart the helmet and leaving his cranium half exposed. The hooves of his steed made sure the warrior would never rise up again. Thrice the Daimyo cut down upon his hated foes, and thrice did the blade in his hands draw blood. Within moments the No-Dachi units were in chaos, fleeing for their lives. With a wave, Nobuhide sent off his Yari Light cavalry to pursue them, ordering his Heavy and Naginata cavalry units to follow with him towards the remaining enemy. “I hope young Takahishi did his role” Oda asked of his loyal second in command, Ishida Motonari. “I’m sure he did. He might be a young fool, and a little on the grim side, but he’s a brave warrior, and his men trust him. They’ll hold onto the hill like it was made of gold.” “They better had” he replied “or else I’ll order him to commit Hara-Kiri on grounds of failure…”
