I quickly free-styled this poem into notepad in one minute, just for the sakes of it:

Whilst birds sing,
A few clouds,
And not much wind,
A summers day,
"Perfect" you say?
"Well how do you figure?"
I ask the dark figure,
"Your day is not grey",
He replies with a snigger,
So then I consider,
Could he be right,
That this day is no night,
That happiness appears,
When left with no fears,
Of lies and deceit,
Or people who cheat,
Yes I think he could be,
So I walk over to see,
Who this mystery could be,
Only to find it's mirror,
And the reflection is me.

I think it has a pretty bad structure but I like the split kind of personality in the character.

Rather strange, I almost feel like it needed an introduction or something beforehand.
It also seemed like a nice day, but felt rather sad.

That's kinda how I feel right now lol...
Each day is just a good day, sunny, good times with friends, everything is perfect, except im not really happy, but if I went into why I wasn't happy, i'd be going into my personal life, which doesn't really need to be done, any further then I already have :P!

Yeah Iunno, took me one minute, im happy :P!

The first four lines don't rhyme, which threw me off a bit. The poem overall has good rhyme and rhythm. I like to continue to use the same rhyme line-pattern throughout a poem, though, where you have a rhyme then you move to another rhyme (ex. AA, then BB, then CC, then DD, etc) so you don't end up using the same words over and over.

I usually do:

AABB
ABAB
ABABC

So for once I just decided to free-verse and just write whatever, didn't really think it would make sense, but whatever :P!

For as much spontaneity as you claim, it's impressive.
Better than any poems I've written. =P
'Course, I usually seem to be looking at different things than most...
Only thing that stands out much, to me, is that line 5 could use an extra syllable, and... I don't know, something about line 6.

Lol, I didn't time it exactly, but I would say one minute could even be a little too long.
I could improve it a whole lot, but I think that would take away the purpose of this poem, like there's no embedded meaning, just it was fun for me to do, and even if critics do not like my poem, I enjoy it and so that's the purpose of it really O.O!

I got a ton of poems spread out amongst the Creativity forums.
I was thinking about making one thread that I can update everytime I make a new poem, that way I can keep it all together...
I may be doing that sometime soon, depends if people really plan on reading it or not...

Symmetry -- I dreamed about that as a kid. The idea of a computer capable of analyzing a starcraft map and calculating the fastest possible way to hit the victory condition

Symmetry -- But can AI beat my custom maps?

Oh_Man -- yea APM vs eAPM

NimoStar -- plus most of the human APM is just spam clicking APM inflation

NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.

Vrael -- perhaps there is a small professional player trapped in a box in the server rack where pluto is running? hmm?

Vrael -- 240*12*2 is 5760, where is the other 240 APM?
