Vigil StarGazer Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 (edited) Mine!!! This poetry, that you plagiarized . Those words you stole They are not yours; they are all mine. It has my fears It's soaked with my tears You can copy it With your own pen, but you can't replicate those feelings I ectched on it with my heart. This sketch You claimed it’s yours. The art you took away It is not yours; it is my own. Its born first in my head And into the canvases it fled. You can take away The frame and the board, But you can’t take away The blood and sweat I mixed into the paint. This misery You tried to imitate You are too shallow Too hollow to make the pain feel real Veins filled with agony Too bad you can’t feel it, what irony. You can pretend it’s yours All those pieces of my heart, But you can’t fake it all The elegance that flows from my hand. “Midnight in the middle of a miniature graveyard” A silhouette is digging up a grave “What are you doing?” An onlooker asked. The figure turned and replied, “I’m just expanding my place.” “The Voices” Everywhere is noise Can you hear my voice? Just a silent whisper; a deep murmur I listen, I try to comprehend; but what they say are senseless and everywhere is pain. Spamming to sell, Words without thoughts. So I began to scream, Adding to the chaotic chatter. Edited October 13, 2003 by Lord of the Gay

Ayshela Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Mine!! *sigh* oh yes.. though i understand both sides of that.. having had my work stolen, word for word, line for line, thought for thought.. that hurts. that's a very deep violation. but having had a similar thought, a similar experience to someone else, and found out much later we handled it in similar ways - the gut-wrenching pain and terror of being accused of theft for that which bore the imprints of my bloody soul - i haven't yet found words for it. *shrug* excellently written - acknowledging both what can be stolen, and what can never be taken away.
Peredhil Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 You vocalized the feeling behind Mine! really well, as everyone has said. I like the humor that I see in Midnight'. I hope you intended it to be funny! But I have a graveyard sense of humor at times anyway. In The Voices, You captured much of the way I feel about logging into my email account and finding legitimate messages have been bouncing because of the spam count. Really enjoyable reading. Thank you!
