For example, say I'm using the schem of one of Poe's poems, but I'm using totally different words and the meaning is totally different. How do I give credit to Poe? Is it an adaptation? Rendition? What is the term for this?
Why does life, have to be so complicated, if only we were born with some sort of manual of what to do, then maybe life would be easier, but isn’t life suppose to be hard, aren’t we suppose to suffer in life ?
Aren’t we suppose to overcome every obstacle that life throws at us, because isn’t...
Lips like Winter
Her eyes they whispered
secrets of past winters
glassy expressions
scintillating a remembrance
spewing out blood like ice
spaces shredded and sliced
where echoes are lost
sprawled about and tossed
but breathing inside cracks and crevices
dying slowly in increments

My Poem on Saved By the Bell

Woke up in the morning, alarm was busted,
jumped outta bed, groggy and rusted,
fall down the stairs, say hi to Mariel…
watchin news, and fighting with ma cereal

Come one, come all and see the amazing corridor
Watch as you see the hall stretch for miles and miles only to wonder, at the pit of your stomach, what is waiting at the dark end of the hall?
Maybe, the unchained beast you’ve kept hidden in your head
Haunting isn’t it? The chill you feel...

LOVE IS RARE
--------------------------------------
Have you ever found love
Did you ever feel it's power
Has it ever maid you blind
Have you ever felt it at work
For all of those who don't know
Love is rare
You may never feel it more than once
You may never find it at all
But when you find...

Ok this is a poem by Rodney Hall.
THE PUBLIC TURNS TO ITS HERO
It was his feet we mostly saw,
gigantic boots with rumpled uppers ---
muffled drums upon our conscience;
or else the skirts of his overcoat
kniving like iron against his gaiters;
or else the muzzle of his...

So many tears I shed at night
So many times I can hear my heart
Breaking apart
Demonic blood is coursing through my veins
And my eyes blinded by dark shadows
Feeling my heart racing

Okay, for homework we have to write a poem about our favourite food, and I chose vanilla ice cream. The thing is, I'm horrible horrible horrible at poetry, seriously, it's hopeless. I'm a high school sophomore but my poem sounds like it's by a 7 year old. Anyway, I have trouble ending my poem :S...

Silly songs, or pretty flowers,
Venus oft times keeps me from
All her alluring powers
So just take my hand firmly,
Don’t let me talk my way out of
The things you wish to do with me
Introduce me to love
I’ve been told I’m only
But a cold stone in...
...comment? In the sheltering shade of the forest
Under the protection of the full moon
I walk to the bed of the fallen
To a place where moonlight
never forgets to illuminate
The winters frost from my last visit
has long melted away
leaving the dried leaves to crunch under my step.
The swaying...
...read and tell me what you think? venus fly trap
what is this thing digesting me
does it know i'm still alive?
what did i do? trapped in this ghee
is it an insect or a hive?
i should have had some health insurance
i sigh and watch my health go south
my prison shuts with such endurance
can't...
