Disclaimer: I've discovered most of the work on this site to be just pure crap. There is no thought put into it and it is becoming a filthy waste of my time (and frankly yours). I wrote this poem during my study abroad in Spain (for the common uber patron, that's a country in Europe... right by Portugal...? There ya go).
It is a reflection of my experiences there and the meaning I've found in the simple things in life. Just thought I would provide some actual content for this site (this is just a rough draft, though it did earn a 4.0). Enjoy-

Life, The Meaning of
Allow the winds to yearn; (bllooww...)
East side, West side;
South side, North side;
Birds in the park; (fly away, bird!...)
Rain patter patter; Storm?
Patrons walking gently; without me;
I cry in agony! Pound the pillow!
No more feathers;

I'm just assuming this is an alter. Nevertheless, here goes.
Going to Spain does not make your poetry good. Not even going to Mars makes your poetry good. I can only assume this got you an A because you were able to bend over for the high-school teacher to see your cleavage at least every other line.
1. Allow the winds to yearn; (bllooww...)
Allows the author explain that she gave her teacher a blowjob before submitting this bullshit.
2. East side, West side;
The author expresses her knowledge of two compass directions.
3. South side, North side;
The author expresses her inability to use one line to say one fact.
4. Birds in the park; (fly away, bird!...)
The author is a sadistic animal abuser. She wants to kill many of these birds and make hats.
5. Rain patter patter; Storm?
The author tries to figure out, "What's that word for rain falling from the sky?"
6. Patrons walking gently; without me;
The author expresses the amount of people who are ignoring her, most likely because she is spouting off crappy poetry.
7. I cry in agony! Pound the pillow!
The author begins filming an anal sex video.
8. No more feathers;
All birds dead. No more hats to be made.
9. Resigned...
Author gives up, decides to post shitty poem anyway.
--------------------------------------------------------
There is no possible way this isn't an alter. I'm so sure of this, I might not even check your stuff.

2. East side, West side;
The author expresses two of the four possible sides of life.
3. South side, North side;
On the following line, the final two sides are revealed.
**************
The meaning of life expressed at the end of the poem is a humbling one, and there is a certain sadness to it. I think that is why there have been such strong reactions toward my writing.

It is becoming increasingly apparent that the general reading audience does not understand this poem. I offer this critical analysis:
Note: From this point on I will refer to myself as "the author".
1. Allow the winds to yearn; (bllooww...)
The author indicates a futility in trying to control certain aspects of one's life. The sound of the wind blowing at the end of the line gives comfort to the reader.
2. East side, West side;
The author expresses two of the four possible sides of life.
3. South side, North side;
On the following line, the final two sides are revealed.
4. Birds in the park; (fly away, bird!...)
There is a conflict within the author's mind and heart at this point in the poem. There are birds, and those birds are peaceful. But in the fast-pace of today's society, the author just wants for the birds to fly away.
5. Rain patter patter; Storm?
The author wishes to convey an environment in which there are small discomforts. A question at the end of the line leaves the reader with a sense of possible disaster to come. At this point it is just sprinkling, but what about an hour from now? Two hours from now?
6. Patrons walking gently; without me;
Loneliness, the modern stigma of human emotion, is expressed on this line. The author, assumedly watching people walk by from a park bench, is feeling left behind, lost, and alone.
7. I cry in agony! Pound the pillow!
There remains nothing left to do but to cry out in pain. Clearly, the author chooses to vent his anger on a pillow rather than invoking violence on the innocent patrons at the park. This shows a strong will within.
8. No more feathers;
A symbolic indicator that the pillow has been depleted. A visiual depiction of the author's rage within.
9. Resigned...
At the end of it all, the author resigns his struggle, and accepts the futility that is life. The meaning of life expressed at the end of the poem is a humbling one, and there is a certain sadness to it. I think that is why there have been such strong reactions toward my writing.

Yeah, those ignorant uber users don't know where Spain is, although for some reason, they all love that Portugal.

Let me sum it up for ya kid. Robert Frost you ain't.

Thanks for the compliment. Frost was the most overrated poet ever.
By the way, I really recommend college (and don't claim you've been to college if you attended a publicly funded university and/or junior college).

It's a poor reflection on this site when you discard artistic statements. It's peculiar how you chastise first-time posters, when the goal of an artistic society should be to expand the horizons of free thought.
I really need to start writing in smaller words... I don't think I'm getting through to you guys. Is there a program out there that can convert proper english to a more accessible "common" language? Please grow up...

Its not because its your first time, it because you suck

I was afraid the readers here would not be able to comprehend my work (read: art in general). In future submissions, I will try to water it down a bit. In the meantime, you might want to read up on some classical literature. You might learn a thing or two.

Obviously, you're not cultured. Try studying abroad, it'll do wonders for your intellect. By the way, it's called "art". I know you can't quite grasp that concept, because you were probably raised in a ghetto. Have fun mopping floors the rest of your life...
