Dude, I'm just reading through all of these, and I'm thinking...
Holy flippin' oliphants! TOLKIEN WAS GOOOOOOOD!
Forget Poe, man, and they say The Raven was the best-written poem ever (or one of 'em!). Why is Tolkien not praised, both as a writer and a poet! He was just totally awesome, his peoms have such rythm, no imperfect rhymes, and they really just get to you.
Why Tolkien is not praised more is just beyond me! He was SO talented!!! OMG! It's just scary!
Oh! Also, I have a question, or maybe a suggestion, too. Can we/should we post our OWN Tolkien-related or Tolkien-inspired poetry?! I have a few of my own, not very good, mind, but still. It would be nice to hear a bunch of other people's writings. But that's only with the moderator's permission, of course!
