interests converge; powers emerge; pundits assure; people lack courage.

- a short poem, by me.

"Our first and last love is... self-love."

Your Blue poem reminded me of a video I shot in June. It's a SALTWATER POOL.

Lest We Forget is a line from the Kipling poem, "Recessional"


lest/lest/
Conjunction:
1) With the intention of preventing (something undesirable); to avoid the risk of.
2) (after a clause indicating fear) Because of the possibility of something undesirable happening; in case.


Lest We Forget means let us not forget.

Your title, "Lest We Never Forget" means, "Let us Not, Not Forget--Ever."
So, we should forget to not forget??
or, Not to remember???
...trying to parse this sentence has caused a rift in the space-time continuum in my brain.

Good poem, but I still think Marilyn Manson is a pillock.

On the upside it looks like he's putting on some middle-age pudge, and there's nothing funnier than a goth that didn't know when to quit. Even more now I find his real name is Brian.

while Id rather have not had the music in the background either, what I liked, aside from the poem, was just seeing him like, well like just any other guy reading a poem, no theatrics, no over the top dramatic inflection in his voice, just your everyday average guy reading a poem.. I enjoyed seeing that aspect of Marilyn Mansons personality very much, and is precisely why I posted it.

^ Will a poem do?

The standard model of particles, founded 50 years ago,
By abdus salam, steve weinberg and sheldon glashow.

They theorised three new forces, through which we used to find.
That gravity isn't the only all pervading influence of its kind.

The strong force exchanges gluons, of nuclear design.
Forgive the sense of humour, science needs a focused mind.

Before that comes the weak force, which must be overcome,
To fuse elements together and create a heavier one.

E-M forces follow; with yet a greater range,
"Quantum electrodynamics" uses photons to exchange.

Gravity we discovered first, Newton lead the way.
Applying it to the planets to map the celestial ballet.

From the smallest to the largest, we arrive at the present day.
The "Theory of Almost Everything"; so close yet so far away.

(Needs a bit of work!)

geo321, a siftin' son of a gun
a pillar of sift, in short we'd be berift
if he imploded and discarded all his vids;
sadder than a baby dead of SIDS.
Ok, that's hyperbole and a bit to far, even for me.
This poem has gone on much too long
and it's a free form hipster sort of psalm.
A limmerick wouldn't do the trick,
and I wouldn't have been able
to write as quick
if I tried to force myself into
that poetic constraint.
I hope this won't taint
your coronation;
Just wanted to give my
congratulation.

Thank you. No disrespect of gays intended. I LIKE th
e rainbow Oreo!

For some reason my mind treats your post as a poem or a song.

Reaffirms my belief that beat poems = shitty poems.

Sorry cliche'd pretentious phrases and forced rhymes strung together don't get me off.
