J'aime beaucoup toi, ma belle amie,
J'aime bien ecrire en francais avec toi,
Please correct any errors you find,
And give me a hug and a smile,
You are a rather special lady to me. *Blink*
'Je t'aime beaucoup' and you're welcome.

And so it begins... Emmie has shown her true face!
The topic being the club and it's denizens... And
The rules will also evolve as the posters race
To keep up, imagine new verses and then append
Them here. Very well! What is the club Meet n' Fuck?
Obviously, a place to sate one's sexual needs
Choosing from a variety of poses, and with luck
Get laid - Well, at least for anyone who succeeds
At finding a willing partner. After a while,
Sex proves insufficient - one needs a social life,
After all. Be honest and true, do it with style,
And many great friends you will make... but sometimes strife
And broken hearts do happen. Don't give up too soon,
What you will find here will inspire you to be
Bolder, make you discover your true inner boon
Or talent, and broaden your sexuality...

We share many things, some most special friends,
Some secrets and at least one adventure,
Our passionate praise and brilliant smiles,
You remind me to be me, a leaf, free,
I hope you know that I love you dearly.
Kyr, my good man... the feeling is mutual, big brother. (why do I feel a lump in my throat, all of a sudden?)

RE: The Challenge - Kyrios - 03-19-2016
Well it is a new day and I feel like posting a new rule. So:
Theme: Fear or Trepidation
Style: Blank Verse
Blank verse does not rhyme, but does have a rhythm. Typically it is written in iambic pentameter, meaning each line has 10 syllables, with the first, third, fifth, seventh and ninth stressed. Any meter is fine though!
RE: The Challenge - IvanXLIV - 03-19-2016
Very well my friend, fear is known to me...
I have seen it in her green, ancient eyes
In the tremors of her elderly hands
Hovering like a shade over her mind.
I cried, despairing, as her mind crumbles
By pieces, so close and yet far away...
Anxiety grips me in its clammy hands
Will she be herself again tomorrow?
I know not the answers yet, I am scared...
Life-giver, teacher, and of course mother
most of all; I dread to see her wasting
Away in such terrible oblivion.
(apologies for the somber topic. It helped me to get it out of my system.)

RE: The Challenge - Bansai - 03-19-2016
Searched a bit about the blank verse, and this is how the structure of my piece after taking a few references about it. Do tell if its wrong or anything eyy?
P.S. Attempting to use difficult words in them, hope its used correctly *laughs*
Fear the day, fear the night, an endless cycle
Encroaching, invading, your safe haven
Daunting the horizon, with their deceit
Dealt with finesse, behind the curtains
Where he'll strike? That's the luck of the draw
From left? From right? The thrill that rushes in!
As you dance, writhe, in agony and pain
Get your buddies, get your friends, and stand strong
to cover your blind side, along the path
For the worse that will befall you, most certain
Beware the darkness, "His" certain playground
RE: The Challenge - Kyrios - 03-19-2016
I'm OK with fear, I don't like it much,
Don't hate it either, fear helps keep me safe,
Fear gets in my way, but when it does that,
I say, 'piss off fear, meet recklessness mate',
I dive right into something, quite heedless,
I do that because I'm afraid and the,
Other choice is accept paralysis.
I've had enough of that, I don't want more,
So when I'm too afraid to leap I just,
Stop trying to cross the gap, let myself fall,
Or sometimes fly, who knows?
RE: The Challenge - Cath - 03-20-2016
The poesy is, for me an art where,
Fear has no place here. But why the fuck not?
Why would you be scared? Look Cath is near you!
You're one lucky man, to be in such place,
Because I'm here to, if you'll accept me,
Release your stress hun! Come here hun' let me,
Make you feel better, come on relax take,
Your time while I take, what's in your pocket.
RE: The Challenge - Altaria - 03-20-2016
So new day, new rule. How about making the poem like 1st stanza with 4 verses, 2nd 3 verses and make the rest jump from 4 verses to 3 to 4 again, so on. And make it about happiness, may or may not rhyme.
Let me try it
How about a simple line
A true message for the brave
About something so small
And yet so big
How would you tell
Someone if you were asked
"What makes you happy?"
Well I would say
Find it in the smile of a child
The warm hug of a friend
Or in a simple action of devotion
Search your spirit
Make room for those to come
Cause happiness is being there
Happiness is about sharing
About caring
About stupidity
Being humble and flirty
RE: The Challenge - Emmie - 03-20-2016
I'm gonna go ahead and also post my contribution towards the rules Kyrios set. Sorry for being slow.
What Woe is me, to feel what I have felt
To move without a goal, an aimless search
Helpless, of streams neverending despair
To watch a loved one slowly wither off
Without a god, to what do I make pray
With claws so deep inside of me, bleeding
Truly, feelings I shall never forget
And now following the new rules. Both poems are closely tied, as I wrote them just now, at the same time, with the same topic but from two different views. The fear, and complete and utter despair of being powerless, but also the happiness and satisfaction when knowing someone else has the power to help, giving a fighting chance.
During the day, as before
They ask how you are feeling
Knocking on your door
To ask you if you're healing
During the day, nurses so polite
But when night has arrived
They turn, their eyes so bright
They are now vampires
Draining you of your blood
In the darkness of your room
Merely doing their job
I'm Thankful
I'm Overwhelmed
I'm Grateful
They are so very kind
Helping you get well anew
Warriors of life, spring to mind
Caring about you, dressed in blue
This one was heavily influenced by a song that was written by an 8 year old cancer patient. My own interpretation, my own feelings added to it.
RE: The Challenge - IvanXLIV - 03-20-2016
That was beautiful, Emmie.
Here is my contribution per the new rule...
I ambled quietly in the night's last moment
Toward the dawn, a sliver of light appearing
Over the horizon, the starlit firmament
Fading in the rosy light of a new morning...
And there she was, glorious sun of blinding radiance
Filling me with joy and hapiness,
Warmth washing over me, rekindling our romance
Oh, can so much bliss be possible, I wonder?
I bask in her love, exultant and ecstatic,
Praying for this moment to linger forever,
Willingly caught in the strands of her love magic...
I love you so much, sweetest source of elation;
Hapiness is ours when we are together,
Wether lost in the throes of carnal passion
Or talking quietly in the secluded spot
of our merged souls, hearts singing in true harmony.
I love you so much, and I hope that what we've got
Makes you, dearest señorita, truly happy.
Ivan
