Block of Ice(landicblue)

I shall name no names! Really??

You blocked me,
yet we never exchanged a word
You blocked me,
now don't you feel absurd?

You silly little man
What did I do to you?
Have your tender sensibilities
given me my due?

Don't be such a baby
don't be such a child.
Have I breached your boundaries-
am I just too wild?

I think it's your misogyny
and your ego too.
I never liked your poetry
nor your rigid rules.

So now I bid you fair adieu
in a bit more formal way,
and to tell you I don't miss you
now that you've gone away.

Ha! I know, right? This only confirms my suspicions that the WC is an experiment run by behavioral psychiatrists. I imagine the conversation went thusly: "Dr. Smart, why don't we create a website where only the most narcissistic people will join, and by this I of course mean amateur writers, give them free reign to post their own work, which, of course they think is brilliant, and then allow other writers, who feel they are brilliant, free access to critique any published work they choose."

"Will there be rules, Dr. Brain?"

"Yes, but they will not be adhered to. I'm surprised you would ask, Dr. Smart."

"Well, Dr. Brain, I think it's an excellent idea for an experiment...we'll call it...Writer's Coffee Corner."

"How on earth did you even get through medical school, Dr. Smart. Clearly we should call it WritersCafe. Honestly, I wonder why I chose you as my research partner."

"Out of interest, Dr. Brain...are you an amateur writer?"

"Why yes, Dr. Smart...yes I am..."

Aaaaaaaaaand...scene.

I'm almost positive that's what's going on here. If I mysteriously disappear, have the police question the Smart-Brain Group xD

Great piece, blue. I, personally, find you delightful and would never dream of blocking you.

[Frieda P]

ROFLMFAO!!

[icelandicblue]

LOL- a wonderful scenario- much like that prison experiment they did at Stanford. At least if you blocked me I could take solace in the fact that I was blocked by the best.

[Frieda P]

Sorry I really find this whole 'blocking' thing quite juvenile at best...someone needs to revamp the site, erhum, Dr Brain...

[redflutterby]

Bahaha...I just spit my drink all over the screen. That should be a poem Kimmer. ;-)

[icelandicblue]

Thanks for laughing with me. (That's what you're doing right?) 'Tis to laugh.

[Frieda P]

I'm pretty sure Dr Brain and the kimmer are one in the same, did you read her f*****g soup recipe...ha!

[KAOlmsted]

xD

and *blush* thanks, blue...

I know, it needs a massive overhaul. Anybody know any techies willing to take it on? Oh wait...I'd die of withdrawal through the reconstruction.

[redflutterby]

Of course.... who ever blocked you must have issues!! ;-)

[icelandicblue]

I read her f*****g chowder recipe and it was f*****g awesome. I'm actually honored that someone thinks I am so dangerous I must be blocked. It gives me goosebumps lol.

[Frieda P]

Lol, then stop your bellyaching!! Lol ;-P

[icelandicblue]

NO! And you can't make me- you're not the boss of me ya know. I'm celebrating my badness.

[KAOlmsted]

Ha! I'm an absolute menace, I've been blocked by the might David Lewis Paget...beat that! xD (and thanks for the shameless plug for Clam F*****g Chowder...available on my profile page)

[Frieda P]

Hahah, you sound like one of my kids...Lol!

[Frieda P]

Pfft, that's your claim to fame the kimmer?

[icelandicblue]

I can't beat that...yet

[KAOlmsted]

That's Dr. Brain to you, Mrs. R ;-p

It's really quite simple, blue...just respectfully disagree with him. Works like a charm.

[Frieda P]

As far as I know, he only likes one person here, erhum, not dropping any names...and stop outing me the kimmer!!

[KAOlmsted]

Oh! I know! I know! Pick me! Pick me! He only likes.........

....we interrupt this review for an important WC message....whomever has written a poem about blocking or being blocked must do so at this time. Thank you for your cooperation. We now return you to your regularly scheduled review...........

...and THAT's why everyone thinks they're the same people. Am I right?

Oh, and...sorry, Miss P >.

[Frieda P]

Lol, you're on a roll the kimmer, those wooly monster socks have you crankin' em out! ;-)

[icelandicblue]

Perhaps I'll host a contest.

[KAOlmsted]

*laugh* even though I forgot the NOT in my message D'oh >.<

A contest...?

[icelandicblue]

Write a poem about being blocked.

[KAOlmsted]

I think almost everyone has been there done that...I think even I've written one or two...can we submit old ones? I haven't been blocked in a while and I sort of purged the memory of it from my mind *laugh*

[icelandicblue]

All poems would be welcome- well except for one.

[KAOlmsted]

;-)

[Frieda P]

Sounds like a good idea to be, I think I have one floating around here somewhere, it was a multiple choice for why you've blocked the person, at least we'd have an explanation that way, I was blocked by someone I thought way my friend, have no clue why to this day...

[Jack...]

I used to play with blocks when I was a kid, but not anymore.

[Aidz]

Lurved your comment so spot on I could not have written better myself

[Zahra]

haha, great story! :D

[quinfinn]

it is a place to write and review....i haven't had too many problems with big egos because i normally won't tolerate them up to a certain threshold. if someone is ugly and hateful to me i generally give them a scolding before i unfriend them, either in poetry or in pm's...if that doesn't cease the stupid behavior i block them at that point. i have been here two years and have ended up blocking five people for very solid reasons. it is a game changer and sometimes it is necessary to restore the peace. i hate it when people make me go there, but i will. i like the way you handled this subject in your delightful write, it is both resonant and relevant. no reason to stroke over inflated egos or endure malicious behavior.

[icelandicblue]

Usually when people are mad at me I know why. I have to admit I could smell his ego a mile away so I always steered clear of him. I was still surprised that I was blocked having never even reviewed him or had been reviewed by him. Just figured I put it out there. Thanks for the comment.

[quinfinn]

always eager to read your words...fact or fanciful.

[icelandicblue]

: ) Thanks you!

[icelandicblue]

I meant for the s to be there!

[quinfinn]

gotcha!

[Makina]

A good poem about coldness

[icelandicblue]

Thanks

[Distant horizons]

I couldnt put it better than KAOlmstead, but wonderfully written.

[icelandicblue]

LOL- she does have a way with words! Thanks so much for reading and commenting.

[外人 (Gaiji..]

Wow, great poem, strong attack, I'd like so much to know who that is adressed to xD
Believe me, he's the one losing, you tell people what you think, honesty is hard to find !
Great job =D

[icelandicblue]

Thanks so much le parisien I appreciate your positive review.

[&#22806;&#20154; (Gaijin)]

You're welcome, my friend ;)

[Jack...]

Blue blocked???? I can't believe it, now who would do such a vial thing. that is really irritateing. Nice one my friend, I would only block you if you were trying to leave.

[icelandicblue]

Thanks Jack, that is such a sweet thing to say. I'm not going anywhere.

[Jack...]

Good, because if you were, I would be the one standing in the way.

[R. L. Ives]

Very good. Your words show the absurdity in the way people behave. Why are people blocking and being blocked, besides the goings on a couple of weeks ago?

[icelandicblue]

I don't know what gets into people. I suppose now that I have written this we'll never be friends. Oh well!

[Dr. Wood ?]

all this Dr talk has me worried....Me and Seuss are heading for the hills

[icelandicblue]

Don't you worry...you're not that kind of Dr. You're the Dr. of fun!

[Dr. Wood ?]

Phew.....Good to hear cause old Seussy...is short of breath

[icelandicblue]

Yes, he's short of breath alright! : p

[Dr. Wood ?]

I hope that some will talk of ME in the same breath one day........Bloody hell...not long to go....I was 62 only last week

[icelandicblue]

Ha...your writing has kept you young and you are not going anywhere- you've got a lot more poems to write!

[Dr. Wood ?]

I'm writing one now
I don't know quite how
It's making me shake at the knees
My Doctor insists
he'll cure me of this
I'm suffering from Rhyming Disease

[Frieda P]

Lol, there is no cure!

[Dr. Wood ?]

I may have to extend that..Rhymingitis is a great subject

[TLK]

This kind of behaviour scorches my sensitive norgans.

[icelandicblue]

Ah from the land of Norg perhaps? Thanks for dropping in.

[jkhatz]

So many brave souls have escaped from the land of Norg and have lived to tell the tale.

[TLK]

There are babies yet unborn who are pre-emptively blocked by this fellow.

"I don't like the way their zygote is dividing."

[icelandicblue]

Oh that is hysterical. Nice to meet you.

[TLK]

We've already met, Ms. Blue: http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/TLK/1041943/

[icelandicblue]

Ah rabbit mother, I should have known.

[icelandicblue]

whoops, that comment was for kimmer- sorry
