Telly 4 Posted June 1, 2006 This thread is for both the artistically inclined or the not so artistic banded or unbanded folk. Express how the band has made you or is currently making you feel..but do it in a poetic way. Be creative and expressive. Whether good or bad, funny or sad. It could be about the band, exercise, food and family. It could be about anything band related. Example of this: I see you in the gym. Overcoming gravity. Defeating physics. Rewriting Kinetics. It's more than machines. More than weights. It's my spirit you lift. --author unknown (but this was from a Hydroxycut ad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dawg 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Ooo poetry about the band. Alright. Sumpin poetic about the band... *ponders* Okay, non structured poetic type thing. ---------------------------- Inert Life, by Da Dawg. A small circle of man made ingenuity. It stares like a lifeless eye, cold and uncaring. It will never shed tears. It sees no future. But through it we stare in awe, We see life regained. rekindled hope, Tears of joy we cry. We see the future. From the inert we gain life, Our vision is restored. Determiniation burns within us, Our tears are wiped away, We are the future. Like it or hate it, thats my effort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
