Here's an idea, let's start a chain poem! I've seen chain stories in other forums, but I personally think stories are fairly limiting, as they need to have alot of structure, a direction, and a finish. Poems, however, are much more fluid, and tend to use more creative thought process. So here's the rules:
1)Keep it serious --- No posting random crap like binary mesages, or keyboard poundings unless it somehow (and I have no idea how) fits into the evolving theme of the poem. Use real language as opposed to l33t or some other form of unreadable garbage. Proper spelling and grammar would be nice too.
2)Post only one line at a time. I'm sure you've got a world of ideas you want to interject, but adding a whole paragraph of text at a time will only make the poem amazingly huge, and baised towards whoever writes more. This is a group effort, not a one-person-show.
3) Rhyming is cool, but not neccisarry. Try to just let your words flow instead of making too much structure. Also, we shouldn't conform to one style of poetry per say, but use whatever feels right at the time. If the last person used a certain rhythm that you'd like to build on, go ahead and do it... OR, go agasint it to provide contrast if it seems like the right thing to do.
4) Please repost the entire poem along with your newly added line. Keep the poem between [start] and [end] quotes so that comments don't get mixed in with the actual poem accidentally. DON'T EDIT THE PARTS OF THE POEM THAT WERE POSTED BEFORE!!! THAT'S CHEATING!!!!
5) Have a good time!
I'll start it off, with a single word:

It's not a bored topic... it's a topic on creative expression, damnit!
And if you're not going to contribute, don't bother with your negative comments
