Doukeshi

I'm going to post this, I don't care how absurdly tacky the theme of the poem is. The sky was wide upon the plains, The air was clear and sweet, A proud figure stood so still to feel, The grass beneath his feet. The blades did sway upon the ground, And fur upon his face Did ruffle in the stirring air And danced with faerie grace. The setting sun then scorched the sky A deep and russet red, The moon once more did blink its eyes In rising from its bed. The wolf then sighed and turned his head To face the rising moon, And mourned that once again the day Should face its end so soon. He closed his eyes and licked his lips, A movement lined with pain, And then a mournful cry took flight And echoed 'cross the plain. The howl was long, a saddened voice For the one without a pack, For the one who to the others sang But would never they sing back. He sank his head between his paws, And blinked away a tear, A lonely hope, a longing dream, His pack would find him here...

umm, it says banned in his title because he's just that...banned. He is banned from using OB by James.

OOC: Yeah I forgot it was in first person heh sorry, I'd also love to know how you get a tiger a lion and a rhino into a barn *shrugs* lol. ---------------------------------------------------- I stood in the corner of the barn, curiously watching the others. It was scary, this was very true and yet it was also incredibally exciting. I was psycing myself up for my turn, watching Danny shift nervously. She was freaking, I could tell..like a cornered animal, how appropriate. When it was her turn she blew, just blew up right there. "No way. This is insane, and I want nothing to do with it!" She was really scared. "Danny..." I tried to venture some calm to the situation. She turned to me, panicked and outnumbered, "No, c'mon Lea. How sane you you think this is?" I paused. This was insane. This was truly, truly insane. I sighed and shrugged. "How many people have the same hallucination, at the same time no less?" It might be insane...but it was real. I cricked my neck and walked past Danny, placing my hand on her shoulder reassuringly as I went by. Big morph is it? Well...I looked around the barn, surprised at finding such a large array of animals in a single barn. I spotted what I wanted hunched over in a corner watching us warily. I nodded and smiled "There you are," I grabbed the rail, unlocked the gate and vaulted into it's arena. Walking slowly up to him, the bear watching me with increasing wariness. He was medicated so he wasn't going to maul me anytime soon...I hoped. I crouched down next to him, cooing softly, "Hey there big guy, I won't hurt you if you don't hurt me okay," I ran my fingers through his fur and scratched his ears slightly. The already doped bear became still as I acquired him. "Good boy," I gave him one last pet on the nose before I stood up and exited the cage, locking the door behind me. I walked over to Danny and smiled, shrugging. "If this isn't something you want to do, then don't do it...however, that alien entrusted you with something, a legacy if you will. Think about it." Danny looked at me with big eyes, confusion written across her face. ----------------------------------------------------- OOC: heh heh, just a little homage to my favourite Animorph

*hits her hand against her head* This isn't a soap opera.. Anyway, poetically speaking, you're just churning out these lists of words and sections that have little or no structure. The emotion of this poem isn't really conveyed here, as it would be if the poem were better.

Your poetry is forced because, it doesn't flow well. It needs to be lyrical. Also it seems sometimes that you are searching for a word to link your stanzas...and the one you've found "doesn't quite fit well enough, but it'll do anyway". Although having said all that I really like the last stanza: [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Taylor Hewitt [/i] [B]Now your gone You're outta here You're never coming back [/B][/QUOTE] I suggest Pablo Neruda to you, simply because he writes the greatest love poetry I've ever read, I have the first stanza of his 'Sonnet XVII' in my sig. Also 'Lenore' by Edgar Allen Poe is a wonderful lament, I think you'll learn from them.

This is one of the first poems I ever wrote, so I have no doubt it lacks certain poetical essence. However..see what you think. ------------------------------------------------------------- I loved you once, when time stood still, I would sit in your warm embrace, I would look in your eyes and feel love. And yet, your soul would stand alone And I knew what was to come, embraced it. No time, no place could do what was done And know what it was I felt, When you left me. When you tore out my heart. Never could I sit in your warm embrace, Never look in your eyes and feel love And know that you loved me once, No more.

Well, before I go to work here's my two cents as it were. Equal does not mean better and people seem to forget that. However, I do believe that women are slowly becoming the more dominant of the species. I'm trying to prove a trend considering many many years ago women used to be on top, then along came something to knock them down in society (my theory is it's the bible, but correct me if I'm wrong), thus making men on top. Now women are making their way back up. This in turn will be replaced by men once more etc etc etc. Anyway, that's the sociological study I want to conduct. I'll edit this somemore when I get back from work.

I don't think it'll make a live action movie..otherwise Pokemon would have gone that way. I don't think an anime based on dueling anything would make a good live-action movie. On the note of that suggested casting I think that julia styles would to a good Mai..and that guy looks like a cool grandpa, but he has a tendancy to be too goofy. I tell ya who would make a good pegasus, Richard. E. Grant, now that's style.

I wonder if anyones noticed the closness to what was mentioned in a sylvester stalone movie 'Demolition Man'. It's set in the future and Sandra Bullock is telling Sly that Arny was President for a while after first becoming a governor somewhere...I forget where. I'm English, so it really doesn't effect me, but I do think he'll do well as a politician and I think he's a pretty intelligent person.

Lea sat in her room running her hands through her blonde hair, deep in thought. Exhaling a deep breath she rubbed her hand across her face and shook her head. "Geez...what the hell have I gotten myself into now?" What, an alien, gives six kids the power to turn into any animal they touch. Only for two hours mind you, or else. Of course adding to all that is the impending alien invasion...only these were different aliens from the alien who had given them their alien powers. These aliens were evil aliens. So where were the good aliens in all this? What did he say, this had happened before? Talk about not paying attention the first time round. Lea stood up from her position on the end of her bed and started to pace her room. Goddamnit! As if final's weren't enough, now she was part of an elite team who had to save the world...again! Of all the stupid...She sighed again and tried to compose herself. At least the others were involved in this...at least.

our garage was broken into a couple of times. The first time just a can of heavy duty glue was taken??? Stupid criminals. Second time a crate of diet coke was taken, just some kids I think. The third time they took all the power tools...so that was kinda bad, we had insurance on them though so we were compensated with much better tools ^_^.

Background: Exchange student from England (Leeds to be exact) moved here with her mother after her father was killed in an explosion in the factory which he worked. Appearance: 5,6, short, blonde bob and green eyes, lithe and quite athletic. Doesn't follow style as such, pretty much wears what she wants, jeans, t-shirts, whatever. Wears a silver ring with a black stone her mother gave her on her index finger and a silver celtic twist on her thumb both on her left hand. A beaded necklace and bracelet.

Meh, I'm in england we don't get Driver's Ed, well, not in school anyway it's an outside tutoring. Also you can only learn to drive when you're 17...bummer huh. Anyway, I'm pretty good I'd say, although I have this thing with roundabouts (all you British folk'll know what I'm talking about) I have difficulty with right of way ^_~.

Wow...*thinks* people who have changed me. Well, I don't think that anyone has 'changed' me as such, of course there are a few people who have made impressions upon me: [b]Logan:[/b] Well, the first guy I met on OB, and a very interesting guy at that. This fella got me interested in forum RP, he should be proud lol. [b]Azurewolf & Krillen:[/b] These are the masters of the art of banner making...I strive to better myself because of their work ^_^. [b]Milliefan:[/b] She makes OBoarding all the more interesting ^_~ y'all know what I mean.

Now, here comes the question...to use this wonderful banner you have made for me here (and wonderful it is), or to use the banner I have made myself. Oh choices the choices...of coruse I could alternate.

yeah, I used to watch my brother play Warhammer and Warhammer 40K all the time. I started kinda playing too. The High elves I think are the best physically, and are the easiest to master, however the undead and the human's such as the empire are really good to get to grips with if you have experience ^_^. That's Fantasy anyway, Eldar and Space Marines are the best 40K wise, personaly my favourites are the Katchan jungle fighters and the Talan desert raiders.

Ask Braidless Baka, she's an OB. She's written a couple of cool GW fics, I haven't written any...I don't think. Anyway She's bound to know, an there are also a whole load of really good non shounen-ai fics out there ¬_¬@MillieFan.

Oh sure they're all im pressed with [i]your[/i] stuff *huffs*. Nah, lol, I always said I liked your banners...whoever said simple wasn't good eh, liars the lot of them *chuckles*.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by maladjusted [/i] [B][size=1] Naw, whether or not you like Eva or not, I don't think Hollywood will be able to pull off all the Eva units and fight scenes correctly. Or, capture the small bits of Evangelion that make it different.[/size] [/B][/QUOTE] True, there is just something in anime that cannot be captured anywhere else, even if it were simply drawn in a western style I think it would lose something, I have to agree with you there. I wonder if Kaoru and Shinji's relationship will be the same in this movie, if you know what I mean *chuckles*.

to tell you the truth I never really noticed, other than the fact that Pegasus(Yu-Gi-Oh), Viscious(Cowboy Be-Bop) and Xion(Bloody Roar, okay it's a game but meh) all kind of looked the same to me *shrugs*. However, I think it is usually used to denote someone of evil, or not completely good intentions primarily because black is always used for evil and this puts it on it's head. Just look at Muraki in Yami no Matsuei, he wears all white and is evil, plus the ones I've already mentioned. In truth, I just think it makes suave bad guys look more suave to be honest. ^_~

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by maladjusted [/i] [B][size=1] And yet Hollywood is using anime as a new way to get more money. ADV films are already making a live-action Evangelion movie, and there's rumors of a live action Akira and Sailor Moon. ::shudders:: OK, so there's a possiblity that these movies could come out good. I've seen the promo picture for the live Evangelion, and I admit it. They look pretty darn good. But I think if you ever change an animation to a real life movie, it looses something special.[/size] [/B][/QUOTE] No offense to Eva fans, but I think they'd be adding to it making it into a movie, seriously the only decent character was Penpen. Although this is just my opinion probably influenced greatly by me not liking Shinji all that much *chuckles*. [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by maladjusted [/i] [B][size=1] Great... I'm hoping that this anime fad will soon be over. I don't think it's a good idea to do this to any anime movie, whether the live-action one is good or not..[/size] [/B][/QUOTE] I think that this "anime fad" is a result of the huge box office boom they're getting from transfering all those comics into movies. Things such as 'X-Men' and 'The Hulk' and 'Batman' have been huge smashes (well most of em) and I think that film makers are just trying to progress from that. I personally think that it would be interesting to see them turned into live action...I mean, if you don't like it you don't have to watch it right? ^_^
