Red Bess Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 I've seen a quite a few poem postings, and I'm wondering how you poets would feel about starting our own thread to post poems and comment on them. I write poetry myself from time to time and I think it might be fun to have a specific place to share our work. Whadda think? Stynky, any ruling on this?

PyratePhil Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 All's I know is, there be other boards that I post on what have done that... ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius
Dream Wench Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 I be flexible. Me poems number 500 or so...but..I be postin' tha ones pertainin' ta Love an water, The Sea..Pirates....an Ghosts o the mind with a Nautical angle. I be thinkin' me havin' fun with tha Scots Ebonics..from another tyme...The bizarre.."stretchin' o the mind"..be good ta ward off Neuroses....In a high wynde Tyme travellin' souls collide in peculiar ways. Let 'em talk I say ! A private meetin' place..all well, and good. All are welcomed...as far as I be concerned. Iffin' it gets too bad..we kin fashion restraints from worn out sails..and let 'em out on Sundays only.
Rumba Rue Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 As much as I be a poet myself, I do agree that a seprate thread for such is better, as it don't quite belong in the Rabble Rousing section here. Perhaps under Pirate Pop etc. As I am feeling a bit inundated with it here. Rumba Rue **I live in my own Fantasyland and they like me**
PyratePhil Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 With all due respect ta the admins and mods here... How hard be php ta be addin' a new catagory? It weren't like it be takin' up THET much space... ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius
Dream Wench Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 This Wench be goin' thru phases. When I hit tha road to head West inta the San Luis Valley o' Colorado..in a fortnite...me Poems be scarce on tha board. When I travel..the pen be catchin' things ta share later. Modems be hard ta find along the RV trail..an' usually me head be tired...from avertin' me eyes o all the tacky franchises, an' sign pollution..but tha open road..be another story. I see tha riverways..an Mother Nature...if my Poems be a bit too numerous....I have a velvet leash for em..I kin hold 'em back at will...not one ta make a pest o meself..unless....I see someone bein' mean ta Nature...then I git on 'em. I plan ta videotape meself readin Poems ta herds o cattle...(or donkeys) hopefully in Pirate Garb..or a reasonable facsimile...
Capt. Flint Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 Sorry to hear your feeling a bit inundated with all this poetry RumbaRue. I sometimes feel that way me self with every other topic or comment seeming to be about POTC. I personally do NOT feel that we need a separate section for this. If it should be posted in a different section that Rabble Rousing , then so be it. Otherwise, I think we have enough sections to post this topic. .. Just the thoughts of this old capt. who also considers himself something of a poet................ The Capt.
Cire Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 I be thinking it good to have somewhere organised to put poems. I be the sort who don't like posting em separately unless it be a place specifically for em, else I'd be posting a few o' me own. Because the world does revolve around me, and the universe is geocentric....
Dream Wench Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 Do we want Poets Happy ? Aye Do we want non Poets happy ? Aye Whatever we do we yield to tha crew and fynde ways ta see Aye Ta Aye ! (Dream Wench..a little embarrassed by such a Generic Poem)

Sjöröveren Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 I aren't much for writin pomes, but I likes readin em. It'd be nice to have em all in one place so's it be easier t' read em. the Fool's Gold Pirates
Red Bess Posted June 1, 2004 Author Posted June 1, 2004 I'm not proposing a separate Topic -- just a thread -- and under Pirate Pop would be fine by me. And I guess, since this is a pirate board, I'd post poems like Dream Wench says -- about the sea, pirates, things with a nautical angle. I've posted a couple poems in the past for special occasions, but I think I might post more iffen we start our own thread. And maybe some others might feel encouraged to do the same. Sound good? I'd be happy to start... Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
Red Bess Posted June 1, 2004 Author Posted June 1, 2004 Ooops! PyratePhil and Dream Wench beat me to it! That's what I get for going away for a long weekend. OK, I'm there......... Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
Dream Wench Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 Fyne with me fyne with me we write tha poems about tha sea and surf and sand and things Neptunian start tha Poems...I'll see ya Soonian ! yarr !
piratelassie Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 A thread fer poems abou' tha sea? I agree mate, I agree. I'm not much good fer rhymin stuff, but I writes poems. Lots o' them. I think a separate thread would be great, because ya don't have to go rootin' through other stuff lookin fer the poems
Dream Wench Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 Aye....some o tha Poets currently be postin in tha POP Page..... Me Poetry sails be stuck right now in tha Sargasso Sea but when I git a friendly breeze Me words will be set free
