This is our attempt at getting you to interact with us...

if you ever see something special post a link.
if there's someone to whom you wish to say "you rock," jot it down here, for me... i'll thoroughly enjoy your recommendations. its hard to read everything so help us all out.

i wanna kick things off with PoetessAurora

living up to her name.
 
yes please. everytime i open "words" there's 3 pages of new subs.
it drives me wild... because i want to read them all. so i scan the thread title pop-ups looking for the hook that drags me in, and then *click* what hits hard with the first five lines. i know i'm missing people's best work and other's favourites. i also want to help make this forum more interactive.

jump in.

shout out to Vurt, love ya work, dood.
 
I decided to use this spot to provide links to poems I love that have since been archived [I often think about a poem and go to bump it but find that I can't]. I'm sure I've missed other poems that I love but these are the ones I could find on a relatively quick search.

someone - from cold to warm and back again

vurtomatic - 20 minutes by the tram stop

shuddr2think - larger than life

drea - lather, rinse repeat

shuddr2think - two years and twelve days

yourgirl - substitute girlfriend

Mellabopper - numb

harraser - watching the storm again

anna! - For Thoth

mmmmSexyE - Didn't anyone ever tell you little girl?

apocalyptic vendetta - the faulty contradiction of dreaming while awake

I'd like to add that most of my very favourite poems are in Best of Bluelight so people should check that out as well. If I get time I'll link some from there to here later.

thanks, that's exactly what i wanted.

cheers 1234 too.

you just cant imagine how much good stuff goes unread.

i hope that every time i open this thread i find a new gem.

cheers all.
 
I wrote this post out the other day but I accidentally erased it. I have a bit more time now so thought I'd give it another go.

These are all in the Best of Bluelight but as people don't go in there very often I thought they deserved a mention in here. Some of my absolute favourite pieces of writing are amongst this list [ I think I nominated quite a few of these]. I wish a lot of these writers would start posting again. I remember how much their writing affected me when I first started reading Words...

*SWeet-e* - I can be beautiful too

ice-9 - stasis

MiNiMoWs - if you have a few minutes to spare [long]

drea - plastic smiles

E-girl - Maybe... someday

Dagny - To ME: when I was...

Aja909 - Red and Sudden Changes

Ashke - Sometimes I am

To anyone who would know... where is -Resque- and her poems? They seem to have disappeared [or I'm just not very good at looking].

And this story posted by [though not written by] flux: On seeing the 100% perfect girl one beautiful april morning really changed how I thought about relationships. I highly recommend people check that one out... even if you don't read anything else.
 
This thread is an awesome idea...nice one spgeddi! :D

And thanks for pointing me to Best of Bluelight, up all night....I din't realise there was such cool stuff in there, everyone should check it out sometime.

Here are some picks I came up with after a search for the past hour or so....

*SWeeT-e* - I can be beautiful too
MiNiMoWs – written before i became a cocaine addict
MiNiMoWs – pink cotton
I don't think I even heard of MiNiMoWs before checking out Best of Bluelight, but these two made me chase down her other stuff, and it's all great!
Spencer – talkin’ shit about a pretty sunset.
onlysweetpea – Miscarry (Both Hands)
Shoelace – Shoelace and his new song
.dR spgeddi – 4 my friends

There are a couple more I couldn't find...there's one for mrs.spgeddi that always makes me smile...and I'm sure there's a funny little song that was posted ages ago with some lines like "don't wanna be down, just wanna be up" or summik like that....and no, it's not the chantoozies... :p

Anyways, this is a great idea...keep em comin' peeps! =D
