Question: I really think this is one of the best poems ever written!?
I really think this is one of the best poems ever written!. Probably it's top 10 or so all time!. It's entitled "Subcommander Grapefruit the Wise and Benevolent Subcommander" What do you think!?:

Subcommander Grapefruit
He/She/It is so wise and benevolent
Struggling valiantly against the assorted forces of wrongtiousness
Many people would stop him/her/it if they could
But Subcommander Grapefruit doesn't care
So much belief in his/her/its essential talents and/or abilities

But what would happen
If people stopped liking grapefruit juice
and Subcommander Grapefruit stopped drinking it too!?

This is what I like to call Poetic Ianography!. The idea is to embarrass yourself and then spend the next six months trying to cover up the stink, thereby conversely, exponentially multiplying the smellWww@QuestionHome@Com

TD, I like your ianoism!. He does this all the time!. He begs for forgiveness and tells everyone how bad is is being mistreated!. Give me a tissue, I can`t take it anymore!. BOOOOOOOOOO FREAKING HOOOOOOOOOO!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Some Summers Past
Some summers past, we were standing,
For each others’ better halves waiting,
It was then our eyes did glance,
And their arrival we forgot perchance!.

It was then your eyes met mine again,
Yes it was some summers past,
We smiled and cutely blushed
At each others open arms we thrust!.
It was as if a moment sent by God,
It was our summer’s reward!.

That moment we still remember till today,
When we met that summers' day,
Ever since we have been two souls in one
Only, since that summer had just begun!.

Yes it was the summer of our lives,
A long remembered association,
At last we built up on our imagination!.
Still today you know, we remember that day,
When wedded meet for a long life’s stay!.

Yes my sweetheart it was that summer
It was the best of life’s summers,
If we both can always say,
It was over a few decades ago,
But for us it is still, as if
It was just yesterday!.
Yes many summers have passed away!.

WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME

I was at the zenith of my life
When I passed away,
Why have you now forsaken
Me and left me in this isolated way!.

Why place me at the nadir,
It was warm and cosy up there,
Though it was so isolated true,
Down here it’s really wet and cold
No one do I now behold!.

Why have you placed a stone so heavy!?
That weighs upon my delicate body!.
Why could you not build a monument!?
As like a Taj Mahal, or an Egyptian chamber,
A Sphinx that would surely protected me from danger!.

Why do you abandon me so suddenly!?
Leaving me here so very lonely, why have you
Forgotten who am I or what was I,
Oh Romans, Frenchmen and Canadian,
Why have you all my, Faith shaken!.!.!.

Wait till you all come my way,
This kind of coldness I will display,
As you are beside by my side,
Your countenance will not hide,
I will still over you here, preside


YOU’RE EYES
There is something I see beyond
The sadness in your hazel eyes,
The distance beyond the horizon
They see so clearly, with an eagle’s vision!.

I see your eyes so seemingly lonely,
Trying to catch a lost vision quietly,
For as I see you wondering around,
Your eyes in them, depth I have found!.
For there in them I see a lost mission,
A seemingly lost transmission,
also in then I experience, truly,
A life’s unending mission, cruelly,
Of enduring love of truthful glance
Of a lost but seemingly known trance,
Yes in those lovely demure eyes
A new, and enlivened Vision, does rise!.


IF
If you can hold your own when, others are outgrown,
Or they lose their minds and upon you thrust,
If only you can confide in your friends, when others don't,
But let others have their way they want,
If you are still unperturbed, by the harm they cause,
Or being denied your right, you do not heir’s steal,
And still do not stand to stare, nor look too unconcerned,
If you can still think of more fortunate, yet not envy those,
If you can still be calm and collected, and not let others irk,
If you can still let grief and happiness be an equal partner
And treat the two ironies, just the way one should,
If you can still share the fruits of your efforts
Taken away by others, who claim it as their own achievement!?
Or still better see them earn fame and name at your cost,
And you can still face the world squarely and boldly!.

If
If you can just forget the wrath and damage done,
And with a smile give them your clap and bravo,
And let each one of your foes, line up ahead of you
And never utter a sound of pain and sorrow!.
If you can still hold your cool, for long there after
To still be happy to bestow them praise
And feel not a bit of disgust towards malicious humanity
Expertly pass the message to them that you know, everything,
If you are the coolest one around in good company
Only you are yourself, amongst poor and the elite alike,
If no one is your enemy nor friend and both have a place!.
If all you know can look upon you, with equal measure,
If you are always your normal self at all times,
With a million jobs well done, taken as theirs
You are the sun of Wisdom, my progeny; all is your earning,
And what is most!.!.!.!.!.you are the only ''Human Being''!.
Without you tell me, where and how, will I stay!?
