I can be the in house poet who's too broke to get a mic and too lazy to get a real job.

I think it's a bad idea. When the business and the fan part of thing started getting tangled, it ends up looking like the current Juggalo News (Mars owns it now if you didn't know.) Juggalo News used to be the shit, now it's doo doo butter.

Psyral, I know exactly what you mean. That's actually why I don't write anymore - I could only manage it when in a, er, chemically induced state. So, I couldn't tell you what my inspiration was usually, but I could tell you where it came from. If that makes sense.

 

Well, actually, that's only partly true. If only I could find my goddamn poems, I could show it better... But my favorite I wrote, named "Alone", well, I suppose that one's inspiration is self evident from its title. "Remember Me When I'm Gone" I wrote as a letter to my friends and family with the intent to seal it and have it opened upon my death (whenever that ended up being). I then actually adapted/changed it and used it as a eulogy at my grandmother's funeral a couple years ago.

 

Most of mine came from a dark place within the soul, themed around loneliness, abandonment, the life/death cycle, and pondering the soul itself. Then there were a few which were inspired by anger or hatred, the best of which has been entirely lost to the sands of time (I believe my parents still have a copy, but will not give it to me because of the circumstances surrounding it), and has a LOOOONG story attached to it. I will pester them about it, and see if I can get ahold of a copy - if so, I'll provide it along with the backstory, otherwise the story is irrelevant without the poem.

 

Long story short, like you Psyral, I once tested at the genius level (albeit 18 years ago, and prior to ~5 years of drugs frying my brain a bit), and have not been able to tap into any form of natural creativity since I was a kid.

 

So, I guess I wrote all this to reply "Uh, I dunno, @Psyral-infection."

 

EDIT: Shoulda read the rest of the thread beyond Psyral's post. @Lucem-ferre, that little bit of verse is straight up badass. THAT is the kind of stuff that's right up my alley.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, especially warlock. I get what you mean buy it being forced, it's a bad habit. I appreciate that anyone checked the thread out. btw I just call it poetry cause that's what OCJ_Brendan would call it. Sean law, I'm definitely not this person but dig horror somewhat and decided to write it. I think warlock is right when he says it sounds dated because my biggest influences are from the golden era.

And LTB, thank you. I pride myself on my vocab sadly enough.

I forgot about going off about that a bit back...lol Good shit Demented you are quite the high social monitor. Text raps are still just poems though I stand behind it.
