As the tempest surges,
Transcending into night,
Brilliant as the lightning,
Raging like a storm,
Not leaving any traces
As if it were the light,
But it keeps on fighting
In ever-changing form

It is seeking something
That our eyes can't see,
An answer taught by faith
And brought by the unseen,
Many will find nothing
Or only a degree,
But once you taste in full,
You'll never be set free

This is the human soul,
As well as tongue can tell,
Resistant to all sorrows
That come with every life,
Taking every blow
And some may take it well,
But there are many morrows
Which only bring more strife

As the tempest surges
Don't let it pull you under,
Strong as it may seem,
Its just about to break,
As the liar urges,
Yelling like the thunder,
Close your eyes and dream
But leave your mind awake

This hit me like a flying toothpick with pig's wings =O

No.

That wasn't suppose to make sense.

So. I'm under the sincere impression that this is a poem. I put it in spiritual because I didn't know where else to put it.

But I'm still at least 99% certain that this is, in fact, a poem.

Shocking, I know.

That's most definately a poem :P. It sounds great when spoken aloud / thought aloud in the head, as I do; I especially liked how you put 'transcending' in there, but that's just me :P.

I really liked this (as well!); but the third stanza seemed a bit awkward compared to the rest of it. I *think* (not entirely sure myself, but this is my hunch) it's because there are too many monosyllabic words in there, and not enough two-syllable words. Both third and fourth have that pattern, and I liked the first two better than those two; having more two-syllable words helps create that rhythm, and almost 'ticking' sound in my mind as it is read aloud that makes it so appealing to me.

Well, I *think* that's it. It half-makes sense to me, but half doesn't. Meh, if that makes sense to you feel free to take it on board, if not, take 'em as the ramblings of a madman :P.

That could be true.. o-o;
I guess its just the empty brainless patch of air inside my skull swirling around and givving the illusion of a near 'brain implosion'.. :P

This one was actually inspired by your poetry rant XD Well, like I said in the description, it just hit me and I spit it out. I would edit it now except I'm kind of busy and only checking dA real quick. Any way thank you for the suggestions, and it half-made sense to me, too. Although the other half seems like ramblings of a madman. But I'm not exactly sane myself - So we'll figure something out! XD

Oh. I figured maybe you lost your mind - as in the ability to think reasonably - but maybe you still have half a brain in there or something.

I love how I can make stupid things sound intelligent! =3

Isnt it great? xP

Hm.. Maybe i got a cell or two.. and they work when they hit a wall.. which is why i only have really short moments where i decide to show actual intelligence. =/

Lol, woot! My rant had a hand in the creation of something worthwhile! Lol.

XD By our madness combined... and that's where my memory of Captain Planet, and hence any parody of it, ends :(.
