My most recent poem... not quite as depressingly hopeless as most of my others. Razz

Very nice. Well-written.

Thank you. This is probably my second favorite poem I've written, after O Sweet Nemesis.

Does anyone else know what seppuku is or does it have to be explained. (I enjoy explaining it.)

I enjoy explaining someone being drawn and quartered, heh. During the process of being drawn and quartered, your pelvis will shatter. And that's just one part of it. =D

Seppuku, or harakiri, is a ritual suicide practice among the feudal japanese. Since failure and capture were not tolerated, people would commit seppuku when dishonored. Seppuku involves disembowling oneself, then someone cuts off your head. (make sure you fall foward, its dishonorable to fall backwards.)

Oh, I know what harakiri is, but that was the first time I'd heard the word sepukku. Okay then.

Yes, this is one of your least depressing ones, but it is still depressing. I never really liked depressing poems before. But these are pretty good.

You people have some of the oddest conversations. I knew what Sepukku was. I learned it from Last Samurai. ^_^ I love movies.


"I have the perfect body, but it's in my trunk and beginning to smell."
"I'm searching for myself, have you seen me anywhere?"
"You couldn't understand a hint if it jumped out naked, said boo, danced the macarina, and attempted to murder you with a rusty spoon!"
"When life gives you lemons, Find someone you don't like and squeeze it in their eye."
