Katchoo's Poetic Expressions of Life
 
No one is righteous, no, not one,

no one understands,

no one seeks for god.

All have turned aside,

together they have become worthless,

no one does good, not even one.

Their throat is an open grave,

they use their tongues to deceive.

The venom of asps is under their lips.

Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness.

Their feet are swift to shed blood,

in their paths are ruin and misery,

and the way of peace they have not known.

There is no fear of god before their eyes.

My other life
 
When i wake up at night

remembering my other life,

i scream.

if i could find a way don´t you believe

that i´d be there today?

but for my clever mind, to punish me,

i´m trapped inside this black design.

tho´ deep inside i hold the child i think i am

my hands were midwife to the hell i´m living in.

oh, believe me,

i´m running out of time.

Acidreptile 03-07-2008 04:10 AM

That last one was more or less Katchoo.:vsign:

Some quotes about righteousness:

"In all the work we do, our most valuable asset can be the attitude of self-examination. It is forgivable to make mistakes, but to stand fast behind a wall of self-righteousness and make the same mistake twice is not forgivable."Dale E. Turner


"The atom bomb was no ''great decision.'' It was merely another powerful weapon in the arsenal of righteousness."
Harry S Truman (33rd President of the United States)


"But the greatest menace to our civilization today is the conflict between giant organized systems of self-righteousness -- each system only too delighted to find that the other is wicked -- each only too glad that the sins give it the pretext for still deeper hatred and animosity."
Herbert Butterfield

Lily
 
Lily came to me without a name
and when i gave her one i lost the day
i lost the time inside. fire and play.
and when i told her i was in the horse
she laughed out loud and said of course
and i was mad but she was on the floor.
and she was like the day she took away
like two eternal lines we met one day
and for the moment it was fire and play.
and i could hear the sound of music play
and everything was going to be okay
til lily went away

now i go on but look behind
and lily´s getting awfully hard to find
now i live on with love behind
i´m not ashamed she was a love of mine

and she was like the day she took away
like two eternal lines we met one day
and for the moment it was fire and play.
and i could hear the sound of music play
and everything was going to be okay
til lily went away

now i go on but look behind
and lily´s getting awfully hard to find.
now i live on with love behind
i´m not ashamed she was a love of mine.

The way an unbiased mod would look at it, I'd say both Tenchu and Powermad147 each has a point. Still, an expression should be made in consideration of others. Why not we compromise? Since this thread is basically about poetry, do you mind if I change the title to "Katchoo's House of poetry" or "Katchoo's Poetic Life"... Something like that?

Katchoo 03-07-2008 05:19 AM

Coming back to me
 
Dreaming like i used to do
back when everything was new
played my songs for you all night
you never heard them sung uite right
in the middle of a thousand dreams
i saw you...
i saw you...
i saw you... coming back to me

laughing ´til my sides would ache
crying when i found the hate
all the times have ome and gone
soon i´ll be without a one
the only constant thing in me
was you...
was you...
was you... coming back to me

:) Interesting set of quotes: One is from the Bible. The other two are from the graphic novel series, "Strangers in Paradise" by Terry Moore.

Quote:

“None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands;
no one seeks for God.
All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;
no one does good, not even one.”
“Their throat is an open grave; they use their tongues to deceive.”
“The venom of asps is under their lips.”
“Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness.”
“Their feet are swift to shed blood; in their paths are ruin and misery,
and the way of peace they have not known.”
“There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
(Romans 3:9-18)

Quote:

published in issue #8 of Strangers in Paradise
When I wake up at night
Remembering my other life,
I scream.
If I could find a way don't you believe
That I'd be there today?
But for my clever mind, to punish me,
I'm trapped inside this black design.
Tho' deep inside I hold the child I think I am,
My hands were midwife to the hell I'm living in.
Oh, believe me,
I'm running out of time.

Lily
by Katina Choovanski


Lily came to me without a name
And when I gave her one I lost the day:
I lost the time inside, fire and play.
And when I told her I was in the horse,
She laughed out loud and said, Of course!
Made me mad, but she was on the floor.
And she was like the day she took away,
Like two eternal lines we met one day,
And for the moment, it was fire and play.

And I could hear the sound of music play
And everything was going to be okay,
'til Lily went away.

Now I go on but look behind,
And Lily's getting awfully hard to find.
Now I live on with love behind;
I'm not ashamed she was a love of mine.
And she was like the day she took away,
Like two eternal lines we met one day,
and for a moment it was fire and play.

And I could hear the sound of music play
And everything was going to be okay,
'til Lily went away.

Everything was going to be okay,
'til Lily went away.

:) Nothing original, but very interesting.
I'm guessing you are a fan of Katina Marie Choovanski, also known as Katchoo?

Anime-san! I haven't talked to you in a very long time...You remember me at all?? If not, i'll introduce myself again: I am Pmad! We've met before ^_^

AAAAND, to answer your question, righteous is...Hmmm...Hard to define. a righteous act is an act performed with the correct thing in mind, or what that person considers the right thing.

@acidreptile; Christians fear God as in respect him :)

CoolNard 03-07-2008 05:53 AM

Guys, I'd appreciate it if no one derails this thread any further than what I've not cleared up. Thanks

animeomarguy 03-07-2008 05:59 AM

I like the poems :D dont understand them, but like them nevertheless










(I wonder if god's a man or woman :/)

Odin 03-07-2008 06:05 AM

:pinkbow: Katchoo your quotes are good for the mind. Let me offer a one to the thread from the far distant past.

Quote:

And Righteousness is a shining in
The smoke of mean houses.
Her blessing is on the just man.
From high hills starred with gold by reeking hands
She turns back
With eyes that glance away into the simple in heart,
Spurning the strength of gold
Stamped with false flattery.
And all things she steers to fulfillment.
- excerpt from Agamemnon,
by Aiskúlos 525 to 456 B.C.E.

those that believe in god should not worry,
worry causes pain and doubt in the belief it self

( forgot his name but a greek philosopher )
