An outlet for players whose creativity extends beyond the board. Post your original works here!
The posting of song lyrics is not the purpose of this board and as such please refrain from doing so. Exceptions can be made to this rule if you are the copyrighted owner of the lyrics and the lyrics are not found offensive by the majority of the population. This board is a place to post your original works of poetry and prose and also a place for discussion of poetry and related areas.
We have received word from Fencer that other's poetry can be posted to this board. These are the two conditions: 1) When someone posts a known copyrighted poem, he must add the author's name as well 2) If the author is not known, the poem can be posted without problems
If battles were waged on your friendly shore You wouldn’t be friends with war anymore If mothers were slain on Broad St. & Main You’d quickly discern that war is insane
But you will not see the blood on the floor And you will not smell the death & the gore And you will not feel the gut-wrenching pain And you notice not the babe’s oozing brain
What cowards you are, who choose to ignore The evil that stalks from Washington’s door What weaklings you are, who choose to refrain From speaking the truth your neighbors disdain
