Here's to you

by Drusus Bathory   Mar 23, 2007


Guns from your father
Guns from your hip
Guns for pride
before a stupid trip

Left at the table
Left at the tree
Left is right
when your mind is free

Stand on a mountain
Stand on a whim
Stand in a chair
when you lost a limb

Fight for your future
Fight for your rights
Fight until nobody's
left in your sights

Love in the springtime
Love in the Fall
Love it man
and stand tall

    Before a stupid trip
    ^ I think you should use a different word other than "stupid" it would make people take your poetry more seriously.

    when you lost a limb
    ^ This didn't really make very much sense to me in the context of the stanza. But maybe other people get it.

    Love it man
    ^ Again, I think you should use a different word other than "man" because it sounds like you are using slang.

    This was a good poem, I liked the repitition in it yet I felt the rhymes let you down a little. When reading the poem I felt that the rhymes were just used for the sake of rhyming and that they didn't really make that much sense in context to the poem. Still, I liked the subject and the way you displayed it. Nice job 4/5

    Hmm. I decided after all the "debate" you posted on your thread, and your pride of your poems, I decided to check some out.

    First off, I'd like to say this poems pretty good. But what is up with the parallel structure? Lately, that's all I really see. I'm not saying I don't like parallel structure, but it is a bunch. The repitition though, happens to sound nice. I like it. But, I don't like the lack of details. It's just not reaching its full depth or length, depnding on how you want to say it.

    4/5.

    I didn't really like the repetition(sp?). It didn't give the poem as much depth as it could have acheived. I love the message but it's just too vague. I don't know anything about the accident(if that's what happened). I just don't like the lack of details.
