  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

My skin

My skin is white
But I don't bite
My ancestors were evil
But some were also civil
Malcolm X would spit on me
But why should he diss on me
When life isn't a dichotomy

Not that original or all the great but here it is :grinning:

I'm a little despot short and stout
Here is the DMZ
Here is my shout
When I get all dressed up,
Hear me out
Don't tick me off
Or no one gets out

I'm a clever despot, yes it's true
Here's an example of what I can do
I can fire a nuke or maybe two
Just tick me off and you'll find out too

Not Your Ideal Physical Partner

I don't have a lot of height
Which concludes with not a lot of might
But I know how to smile
Which makes me liable
To make you smile too
So why don't we say our do's?

I used to write poetry when I was younger... I was quite serious about it too; I studied creative writing for an entire year and I had a manuscript that I tried to publish. People seemed interested in my work, and a couple of respected authors agreed to follow me up. Due to circumstances I didn't publish it, something that I'm kind of thankful for today. Becoming 15 years older does something to your taste in literature, haha...

Anyways, my feeble attempts at poetry were obviously nowhere near as good as @MehGuy's... ;)

Not Good At Poetry.

You always mocked my language
Well you don't know my baggage
Mind gutted
I have never strutted
Depression
Session
You'll never experience a recession

took too much of this,
had too much of that,
but with you i never got enough

i smoked a lot of sky,
drank a lot of rain
anything to ease my pain
but now your touch is all it would take
and that's a shame 'cause i can never come home again

loving you was so easy
leaving you was so very hard
and now I live in this ocean of blue in the corner of a prison yard

now you're a million miles away,
i will never get a chance to hold you

Hey don't one-up me. Lol.

In Relationship
These winds pass, and breathe a soft song for her,
And press their loving mouths upon the grass
Where yesterday she danced.
The twilight, gray-robed, comes from the glowing mist
To pin a blue star in her rippling hair -
But she is gone…..
She left a song to tremble on these lips
To beat its tired wings upon the narrow cage.
There is no more. The night swoops to the earth
Like a roving lark,
And the river undulates into the purple dusk,
Not questioning, not knowing.

Oksana Baiul's life..

I'm a Ukrainian chick
Who was an orphan by age six
NBC didn't notice me
I believe it was all a conspiracy
But hey, I got the gold
And left everyone in the cold
Hi, I am Oksana Baiul
