Guest andrea hawk Posted May 14, 2002 Report Posted May 14, 2002 An unskilled poet is who I am But seriously, I don't give a damn So what if all I write is crap? Your critisism is nothing more than a mere slap In my face... that doesn't give a damn So Shut Up An untalented drummer is who I am I can admit it, so why try and slam Me down to the ground? Whatever you want, I rebound Because I don't give a damn So Shut up A horrible student is who I am The night before a test I cram And then forget it the next day My mind is in serious disarray College? Oh...yeah wait, I don't give a damn So Shut up An unpopular jerk is who I am All those preps, F#CK 'em Abercrombie! Pom-poms! Give me a shotguns! Handcuffs and cells, yah, ok I don't give a damn So Shut up I'll do what I want I'll say what I want I'll do my best to piss you off Hey bitch turn your head and cough yeah, you got it because I don't give a damn So Shut up Got a problem with me? Most would agree Got a problem with the world? Join the club! That don't even rhyme, 'Cause I don't give a damn So Shut up You better listen to what I got to say Unless you want to be my prey GO AWAY OR LICK MY ASS Or meet my friend Knucles-of-Brass Yeah hi mr. miranda-rights. silent? Dude, I Don't give a damn! So Shut up Yes I am pissed off At parents, At friends At my dog, At YOU! Why the hell you reading this? You shouldn't give a damn So Shut up And I know you really don't What's my life to you? You don't even know me Am I screaming out for help? Wait, you don't give a damn So Shut up This world, the next It's all the same It's you and everyone else I have to blame Y'all causing me to flame Know why? Cause YOU don't give a damn So Shut up I don't give a damn because I am me And I am allowed to do that. This poem doesn't even make sense. That's ok though Cause I don't give a damn But you should. Get it? Got it? No? Yes? Think about it. It'll come Unless after all this you STILL don't give a damn So Shut up Unless you got something good to say Give a damn And I'll give a damn. So see... i do give a damn The end... Confused? Good. It's all your fault. I hope you know why It's cause you didn't give a damn. I feel better. How about you?

Guest Xradion Posted May 14, 2002 Report Posted May 14, 2002 I often experienced this same feeling in high school, which is why I decided to take a year off before college. Otherwise, I would have lost my mind. Speaking of Abercrombie and Fitch, I always wanted to come out with a line of clothing entitled "Erotic Zombie and ßitch." It was going to be a line of tee-shirts picturing a big-busted anorexic-looking teenaged girl wearing waaay too much makeup, an unattractive whore, and a starving (though somehow beautiful) homeless woman. That would have shown the mother^&%*ers what image really means. Nothing. And !@$# Sprite for marketing this very concept, yet being the most self-conscious soft drink in the history of the world! Argl! Anyway, the proceeds from this line of tee-shirts was going to go directly too the whore, the homeless woman, and the anorexic girl to help them clean up their problems, and regain their dignity in this god-forsaken world. Ahhhh! Thanks for giving me an opportunity to get out all this left-over pent up rage! I really mean it! If it ever seems like no one give a damn, know that I give a damn. Does society corrupt humanity, or does humanity corrupt society? Like which came first, the chicken, or the egg? Why are we all such hypocrites? Does it all go back to the apple? The double-edged sword unsheathes itself again. I am knowledge, I am passion, I am pride, I am humanity. Xradion, The Horny Druid, Scholar of the Ancient Arts, Holder of the Eye of Odin.

Wyvern Posted May 14, 2002 Report Posted May 14, 2002 A very entertaining read Andrea (so yes, I s'pose I do give a damn then ;p). In many ways, the way in which the poem is written reminds me somewhat of freestyle hip hop poetry. Concsious venting, with little regard to rhyme and rhythm so long as the points made are clearly understood... Yet it still keeps the reader hooked till the end. Cool stuff.

Rahsash Geldich Posted May 15, 2002 Report Posted May 15, 2002 I completely tune this vibe in! But also think for a moment, its people that go against the grain that change the world, that people wearing Abercrombie feel like they need someone else's name to give themselves one. They are obsessed over the now, never thinking about the later, and espically never about the complexity of the damage they can cause. And just for the record, all who can relate-GIVE A DAMN!
Guest Jess Posted May 19, 2002 Report Posted May 19, 2002 I'm none too eloquent with words, and I'm nt goin to sit here and tell you everything I give a damn about; you can decide that for yourself. But there are a lot of people that I wh could read this poem and hear everything it has to say with some sympathy. Not for you, but for those million of people that they have hurt and not cared about, those millions of teenagers who commit suiside every year because no one gave a damn. Those millions of students who feel that going to school with a gun is going to prove something. I want people to read your poem for that.
