I despise poetry.

So what exactly is poetry? Why do people like poetry so much? Is poetry something that can be taken lightly? Are words meant to be taken lightly? Do people understand the weight of the spoken or written words? I feel as if peple write poetry to express their feeling, but sucking at it horribly. Either know the words, learn poetic structure, LEARN POETRY. Poetry is not about just rhyming, or getting meanings down, or using expensive words to decorate. After having studied English (English being my second langauge), I am thoroughly disgusted by the number of native English speakers who do not know how to speak and write their own language well.

I have made a vow to myself, never ever ever read a novel or poetry again. No where in the world will there be a genuinely great literature, except a few. Those few are the only ones worth reading.

Now... on to something more entertaining:

PEOPLE, BE HAPPY! For crying out loud, do you have something against being happy? What is this with being sad and having sad stories? Sad stories are boring! They are cliche. Do something happy, funny, or even crazy! Life should be fun while you are alive. Why make it sad, while you can make it fun and worth living? Do you seriously want to die so bad that you have to make up lame excuses? If you need lame excuses, just say you're such a loser, you can't take life any more. Try and be happy. Life is not worth the pain you are causing yourself. All the pain comes from your head! Sometimes even physical pains are caused by paranoia. Free thyself from thine cage of self doom!

I wouldn't go so far as to never read another novel. Seriously, that's kind of crazy. o_O Hm... Try some O'Neill (drama)? That's my favorite writer.
