Don't worry about it! If anyone asks, just say you're too industrial to be emo! 3nodding It works every time!

Industrial? Like... the art/music style?


XD. yes. It's a joke- they're talking about the 'social clique' when they call a person emo. You come back by cleverly claming to be 'of a different genre'.

And 'industrial' quality is what sets apart 'emo' music from 'whiny, generic metal'. But hey, atleast it's not emo.

To be honest, if I could be any music genre I wanted, I would be like The Dresden Dolls- they adress themselves as punk/alternative/cabaret, and the sound is awesome.

After you tell them you're 'industrial', they stare at you oddly for a second, which gives you enough time to deploy the pocket sand, grab their hat, and run like hell.

That works very well, K0m0-chan. Hehheh...

Although... I have to say that I do enjoy the candidness and bluntness that people who consider themselves "emo" possess. I just wish they'd use that candidness and bluntness of describing emotion to describe those few happy moments in life.

Or, better, if they see some of the more-simple good that's around in life.

Well-said. While having your 'down days' is important, maybe even necessary for your sanity, you can never move upward unless that's where your looking. 3nodding Good writers, musicians, and poets try and capture life from many different perspectives- atleast that's what I've come to expect from my literary/artistic endeavors.

I found a pile of scratch-paper poetry in my room after cleaning. Some are rough drafts; some are finished. In any case I'll be posting them up soon.

Two of them I've put up already. I'm reading through the sheets of paper to see if there's anything else. I know that there's probably at least one more worthy of showing.

*goes and reads everyone else's posts*

But poetry is eaaassy to do sometimes. You just need to start off with some simple ones to get those "creative juices" flowing.

Or practice rhyming if those type of poems strike your fancy in a good way.

just a little something i wrote for class::

A Plaster Disguise

A Plaster disguise-shields her Affliction-
A disturbing game of Hide and Seek-
And some myths of her condition-
Her reputation’s becoming meek.

A simple explanation-
Avoided by an awkward dodge,
Too terrified for recognition-
And she’s dragged into submission.

The Masquerade carries on for a while-
Continued each day by a weaker and more pallid smile-
The Plaster begins to crack and fade-
And the charade begins to fall away.

And then a bystander goes into the Shadows,
And brings light that bellows.
- Help is near for the masquerade master-
And with this hope she passes Disaster.

If there was a rhyme scheme, it threw me off, but yer poem makes me think about make up and how that "face" disappears with age. biggrin

It's very nice, Slim! biggrin It presents a really nice picture, and is very clear about it. Rhyming every pair of lines gives it a nice playful quality, but there were a couple lines in the second stanza where I felt the rhythm tripping up a little bit.
Again, other that that, very nice! I wish I could write as well as you. surprised
