Nice! let me try and write on your topic "i am"

"i am a definition of the word priceless"
"in me lies precious virtues adorned like a glossy statue"
"i am a quintessence of a resplendent gold"
"i am, the world's fairest greatest"
"in my handsomeness maidens are stuck like a bee attracted by a scented chrysanthenum flower"
"i am clothed in splendour and bathed in gracfulness"

aye! I AM THE BEST OF MY KIND!

Ishilove: I am fire
I am ice
I am water
I am the earth.

I am the north
I am the south
I scream, even when
I am silent.

There is a rage beneath
Bubbling beneath
In the calm underwater
Volcano.

I feel love
I feel hate
I take a knife
And plunge it deep.

In fascination
I stare at it
At my own blood
At mine own torment.

I am not what I seem
I am exactly what I seem
Look very closely, because
I am what I am...

what are you? Choose one!!!
okay
you are an.................

Extraterrestrial Love

Even though we are galaxies apart

I feel your presence

Like a touch from an alternate universe

Separated by time

But connected from heart to heart



Our love is carried over light-years

Like a recurring dream in cryo-sleep

Our love is beyond skin deep

Like an alien virus

That controls the body



Our physical chemistry is beyond evolution

Like interspecies copulation

We are a chimera of emotions

A mixture of pleasure and wonder

Across alien worlds and dimensions

I AM or I Am is a name specifically designated to the world's supreme Deity and that God.

Please if in any way you want to use that word - please identify the usage by lettering i am or better still refrain..its a sacrilege...

And this is what happens when they send a thread to the front page. Those who weren't supposed to see it in the first place get to comment.

Cold as ice
Twice as nice
Melting mountains

Likened unto the sea
I toss i ebb like water waves

earth is мч name
World's weight ön mah neck
Still strong i stand

I dance to many beats
Beats of raging quill
Still Tranquil chill

Мч ways weird
Мч days smeared
Yet still on wings i lead

Like the drone i take on thrones
I aм but i clone

check out my poem:

An Ode To Priam

Over and under, the heavy mist ran asunder
As I look upon the field of sorrow
For ne'er hath I conceived such a yawning blunder
Upon which wouldst strike the two-pronged fork
The fork of death.

I remember the day, as if it were of yester
When I hath redeemed that which I hath abandoned
Nay, I hath not killed, but left to perish as a final gesture
Paris! you who cast the shadow upon tis land
The shadow of death.

The Oracle hath spoke, if only I had heard
The jewel hath been stolen, if only it weren't by my son
Now face I must, the wrath of the Achaead
My people must suffer, at the bane of their Prince
The Prince of death.

From Earthly to Godly, the horn didst resound
Goddess of Strife! Goddess of Discord!
Thou hast triumphed oer every battleground
The sides hath been chosen, the die hath been cast
The die of death.

Love, war and light, these forces by our side
Pray tell me o mighty prophecy, what hast thou in store for me?
As I gazed above at the Pleiades, with ill-begat pride
I think of days, whilst I lay upon the bed of roses
The bed of death.

The Achaeans hath arrived, in defiance of Scamander
'Revenge we seek!' they cry, in a wild chorus
The death knell resoundeth through every ear
My men march forward with the banner held high
The banner of death.

Drip, Drip, the drops of wine, that sweet divine elixir
gushed forth in torrents, from the bowels of men
Ah! the wails of anguish from the widows of war
That resound through every nook of the city of Troy
The city of death.

Hector! Brave warrior, son of your father
I weep as I watch thy noble frame lick the dust
Old fool I were, forfeit I did, my kingdom to the tempter
The Cerebrus hath been unleashed to retreive the Queen
The Queen of death.

I liked the part about cerebrus.....a true beast of death

Thnx. I noticed you used the Chimera! wink

We have to admit though, the Ancient Greeks (different from todays mixed Greeks), they truly took religion and mythology to a new level. Its sad it all had to end so abruptly though. . tongue

lol.....the ancient greeks were geniuses. We still use their stories till today.


I did notice that many pagan religions share similar stories....take for instance the queen of the coast or sea.....mermaids....mammy water.....all shared in different ways by different cultures around the world


Every pagan religion had a trickster god
