mind games

OK,, you happily accuse everyone else in the known universe of being mindless, unless they agree with your myoptic view. You are the only one who has the truth, and it is indesputable. You have posted yourself as the most intelligent person in the world at this time. You offer no proof, but demand others do. You condemn thoughts and beliefs of others, but offer no alternitive. You tell me I am a moron, because I belive in God, but you will not tell me how you came to the conclusion, oh excuse me, THE TRUth that there is no God.
As I said above, if you had enough command of the English language without vulgarity to understand it, your "mind" is closed, you have the truth, and the rest of us are wandering in the desert of ignorance.

Just a minor point, I have been in touch with others from the forum who have left it beccause of you and your ignorant approach to people. I used to refuse to join them, but you win. I am gone, until you are.

Do the world a favor, Mr. Urine, go somewhere unobtrusive and die.

People have asked why I refuse to post on a rave, generally speaking some people just want to argue.

I refuse to leave the forum just because one or another person uses it to vent. I vent my opinions and emotions primarily within my poems. I also refuse to play mind games with anyone. Mind games are for juveniles and militaristic CIA types. Although sometimes I bait Merc in good humor, which he understands. It is easy enough to respond to the threads I enjoy and ignore the threads that have nothing to offer. I would prefer reading ten new poems by ten different people each morning with the opportunity to write a poem or two of my own. Also, since I trained to critique poetry by studying the art of interpretation as well as the poetics of twentieth century American poetry, I am happy to hear anyone's understanding of each other's poems.

Still, I don't mind just TALKING with Merc and Percy and Les etc. in addition to the poetry, since I feel I can change and learn from anyone on the forum. I always think it is defeatist to give up on a forum just because of one or two people posting.

Poetry is making; making is doing.

amo,

Peter

I'm aware it's quite dramatic\ to start a new thread and all, but let's keep things organized shall we? I'll transfer the above posts.
