I read until the end of the poem; forgot what the thread was about and felt the need to express how ? I thought it was. She must be stopped...
from writing anymore poems.

whether i agree with her sentiments or not, this is wrong on SOOOOOOO many levels. so now its "wrong" to THINK different?
will things like this not lead us to the point where its "wrong" to THINK?one, people need to calm down
two, that is a terrible poem. do they not teach proper structure in that school? and it's just all over the place. if it was well written i'd have no complaints
its art. ? structure.
if it's gonna be free verse, then have it all be free verse, don't have random rhyme schemes thrown in. not everything is art, some are just an attempt at art. not saying she should stop writing or anything, just giving an honest assessment of her work
objective critique is not an attack
i think the actual story here is a student getting suspended over intellectual property because her teacher invaded her privacy
edit: and i think you meant objective criticism.. im just saynnnnnnn.... -

If its her first class then the primary concern
is just gettin a student open enough to express
thoughts...not first them into a box of structure.
If she were in an MFA program you'd be right but she's
17 in high school pimpin. It does suck though...but she
17, was it supposed to be good? -

get out yo feelings hoe, you responded to me and i responded back. can we not just have a discussion and disagree at the same time?
y you been so mad lately? -
dead at the irony of a 17 year old black girl understanding a mental insane suburban white killer who took advantage of the right to have assult rifles and hundreds of rounds of extended clip ammo.
the poem shoulda been some i don't understand why a mother teaches her mentally disable and socially awkward child to the gun range to shoot assult rifles as a way to "teach discipline" as a family friend said. -

I did have a discussion with you. I had just disagreed with you that I was correcting her grammar, when in fact it was the structure of her poem.
I aint mad, darling.
You are mad though because you cant handle being wrong yo bad. -

i never said she was dumb or speculated on her intelligence in any manner, just gave my opinion on the quality of her work
no, critique works well toowhether i agree with her sentiments or not, this is wrong on SOOOOOOO many levels. so now its "wrong" to THINK different?

i didn't say it was supposed to be great, although i have seen pretty great work from young kids her age before. she should keep at it, but you can only improve with constructive criticism. everyone telling you it's great when it's not won't make you get better
Ive seen a lot of great work from teens her age and younger.
The Louder than a Bomb competition in the Chi folk be snappin
off hard as hell...a lot better than me at that age. Straight spoken
word prodigy.
There's a fine line...I dont recall anyone sayin her ? is great...but I wouldnt
tell her it sucks. Poetry any work of literature is always in need of revision
and work.
rhyme formats...styles are just opinions on ways of communicating
they help a writer get better in the same way pruning a bush helps it
grow. Tellin a young writer they suck is like indiscriminately hacking
at that same bush. Its a fine process sometimes you gotta suck before
get better.
? somalian and a perfectionista. ? cant win. -

no one said she had to be robert frost in this ? , but she could at least pick one type of poem and stick to it.
you can't write a haiku with 20 syllables and still call it a haiku
I was trying to tell these nignogs that. She was trying to write in a contemporary abba format and failed at it.
They teach you poetry structure in high school and give you a format on how to write better.
Shes not the best but dammit it was not thought-provoking to be kicked out of school.
If she had turned in work like this before, then her english teacher needs to be spoken too on the trash s/he allowed her to write. -

You criticized her ability to write a structured poem. I'm saying that your opinion on the quality of the poem is redundant since it wasn't for the public to read to begin with. That's like going through an artist's laptop and critiquing music he hasn't released yet.
Though again, I don't think the issue is the quality of the poem... But if you want to make that the issue, then shouldn't she be in school learning how to write better rather than suspended for "poor work"? -
Both of y'all must be aggravating as hell to be around in real life.

I was surprised she was black tho

Another excerpt
"love is by far the most precious thang on earth,
like a roses fragrance, or a childs birth,
love me and leave me, thats the story of my life

Doesnt everyone do this...
whats your tumblr? -
? overreaching as usual....
in the school and the thread....
so oh girl is supposed to be a laureate at 17?
Word? Most ? twice her age dont have a grasp of
the world or of grasp of their own creative voice.
Nothing more than suppression of creative thought
people would rather criminalize than empathize.
poem is horrible though...same way I wrote when I was
shorty's age.
