The Three Bears

...

 

I was hoping that the bears might have provided us humans with better role models than this sorry example.


Well-written.

 

Thanks.

The polarized polar bears are us

 

That was nice thanks for sharing :cheers2:

 

I don't like the extreme mixture of human and animal qualities the bears have. It feels like a very partial metaphor.
It's no the Trees, but it's not bad either.

 

The point is the extreme polarization. Polar ... polarization. Just a play on words. It could have been butterflies or tyrannosaurus rexes.

 

Why not humans? =P

 

Cause it's a poem, not an essay.

 

...
poems can be about humans =S

 

It IS about humans.

 

Duck is just fucking with you, Caliente. We get the poem.

 

LOL ... ok. Maybe he just likes to hear himself quack

 

No, I wasn't.

I don't think the bears human analogy works too well. The way she switches back and forth between human and bear features all the time just doesn't work for me and gives the poem a very amateur feel.

 

I don't think he does.

 

And I don't think you get my criticism, so we're even.

 

We are not "even". It is incumbent on you, in your halting attempts to write a criticism of another's works, to display at least some miniscule shred of comprehension of them. You, however, somehow managed to miss the point of the piece entirely.

 

Duck just always likes to be "right".
He certainly fits into your poem very nicely!
I enjoyed it, great job.

 

It was not a complex analogy.

 

There's nothing to be right or wrong about.
It's all opinion.
I didn't like the way the symbolism was used and she was being a prick about my critique because it wasn't just praise.

She sure seems to think it was.

 

It's astonishing how bitter and contentious you are over something as benign as a poem.
