silly question but how can I write in italics?

Suzy Berlinski  Sep 17
Place 1 asterisk at the beginning & end of each phrase (or single word) to get italics. Place 2 asterisks at the beginning & end of each phrase (or single word) to get bold text.

tory  Sep 17 thank you so much :D

Suzy Berlinski  Sep 17
You can also italicize a word within a body of bold text...

tory  Sep 17 ah cool :) I'm new to this so I'm really thankful for your tip!

Suzy Berlinski  Sep 18
Thanks Miss Tory (mystery). You're an angel.

tory  Sep 18
thank you. I love mysteries

Suzy Berlinski  Sep 18
If you say "Miss Tory" 3 times, while chewing
raisin toast, it sounds like "mystery." Try it.
It works with saltine crackers too.

tory  
oh god, that's true! misstooory.

tory  
you just made me hungry for some crackers

the internet knows me too good :) just another question. what does that red circle on the home button means? every time I click on it...i see nothing. The circle already says three...

Suzy Berlinski  Sep 18
It shows the activity of those you follow (or those who follow you), I think.

tory  Sep 19
oh okay :)

Suzy Berlinski  
Where have you been? I asked everybody. Nobody would say.

tory  
me? I thought you were the only one here knowing me. I was at school :)

Suzy Berlinski  Sep 19
I knew it! You're too smart for Hello Poetry.

tory  
no I'm not :) hello poetry is a great page I stumbled upon. Though I'm working on a fiction work as well.

Suzy Berlinski  
You have definitely raised the stakes here simply by your presence.
Truth's stranger than fiction. Fiction is often vengeful.

tory  
my poems aren't that good! they always say writing fiction is much easier than writing poems. What a lie. And yes fiction can be vengeful at times :)

Suzy Berlinski  
The important thing is to write.
Let the world paste labels on you.

tory  
those are wise words :)

Suzy Berlinski  
They don't call me convict 456-987 00 for nothing. (Just kidding.)

tory
:) I know.

Suzy Berlinski  
The Chinese say: "Life and death are the province of Heaven."
Of course they're always saying something, usually in Chinese (Mandarin dialect).

I'm so sorry that I have replied so late! mmh I like this quote though I'm cannot fully agree. That means that nothing is better than life? Or...-I'm back into poem-writing-mood :D

Suzy Berlinski  
It means, since Humans are privy to a mere 1% of the visible light spectrum, the explanation as to what the remaining 99% is must be consigned to philosophy/religion.

Lactate motto naku smile.

this poem,
for my friend, who has hit the road,
in ways others only think they have done or know,
miss her firecracking wizardy,
she, the only inky reason
still talk to god,
to cover all the bases,
employ every tool and invention,
to make sure you are a-ok alright,
on the journey to an unknown destination
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Lactate motto naku smile
That is Apple talk.

My Apple language master
señor spell check,
thus advised and improved upon me,
way back on April 3rd of this year.

I wrote:
"last attempt to make you smile."

Apple translated my ginger finger snap taps
into American English as
"Lactate motto naku smile"

Stumbled on this oath, this midnight eve,
this phrase, duly nated and nested,
amidst our very long exchanges,
which someday soon,
am going to edit excerpt
as one most readable single poem,
a tribute to you, not,
that you, my traveling friend,
you already greedy got

no, just a dialogue
just a par example,
of how friendships are born,
how words lactate from each of our *******,
how relationship are birthed and nutured,
in a crazy place, where language lovers
are the nuclei of a dying breed,
once called the human place

***, back in ancient history,
way back on Sept. 29th
our first communication
tween our mutual alien races
tee hee, me wrote first
as follows

Each individual word,
was a separate message,
for such devices deserved of self-respect,
sometimes want their power demonstrated
on a stand alone basis and here that follows was how
Presented and Conceived

Can a man fall in love with a name?


you permissioned me a
multiplicity of yeses,
thus began our star trekked voyage
in the stellar spatial space of the
galaxy of humanity

but part of your new trajectory,
a new orbit in a new spaceship
you champagne smashed anointed as
Mirabel

Now I know you hate my habit,
of slipping in a definition,
making the lazy reader
unself-sufficient,
but I grant, nay, take this liberty, I dew,
while in your quiet traveling disappearance time

Mirabel*
is a female name stemming from the Latin word mirabilis, meaning "wondrous" or "of wondrous beauty"

what ya know, ** **,
nothing could be fina,
than to be in your minda,
nothing more apropos,
than calling your ship in Latina,
a wondrous female beast of beauty

ok I know I go on too long
as is my wont, my nature,
but I could not shorten my course,
in any other way,
Ok,
I
Guess
I
Could
Have
Said
I miss ya terribly*

somewhat more succinctly
but what fun would that be?

i don't why some English people have
this... "nuanced" practice -
of printing out a mini-statement from
their bank account,
   look at it, and then drop it on
the floor beside the bank withdraw point...
just lying about,
   like some tabloid newspaper:
i mean - anyone could pick it up and lure
himself into financial voyeurism...
as i do... and did...
            my god! and i thought i was bad
with money -
   how i managed to get out of
    -2000 sterling at one point -
i will never know -
       sober October? November?
and December or something akin?
     with my income i'm surprised that
i managed to charm the phone center
operative (a woman):
  to gradually decrease my overdraft
limit...
   student overdraft limit...
   which i had for to long to begin with...
once i walked into the bank,
asked to speak to the manager,
asked him to increase my then,
overdraft limit of -£1500 (no interest,
mind you) - giving the excuse of
some aunt that didn't exist funeral...
took out around £300 quid...
   if not more...
   and pretended to be ready to commit
suicide...
  by ******* for 3 hours with three
different prostitutes in a brothel...
       fun night...
               like that night i was so depressed
over a tube announcement that
i "somehow" missed Handel's Messiah opera
at the Royal Albert Hall...
so? i guess sometimes *******
imaging the said music in the back of
my mind saves a man from going completely
sulk poker...
       but i managed to pay it off...
and now, reigning above 700 quid:
i checked...
         seems i'm that i'm, actually not that bad
with money...
            but with that call center flirting,
it wasn't exactly flirting...
   more like:
do you own a mobile phone? no.
do you own a car? no.
   etc. etc.,
      all true...
             as they say:
  all it takes is 30 minutes of brisk walking
for the ol' ticker...
  and i can do roughly a mile and back
in half an hour...
   plus the night air is always refreshing:
esp. in September, in England...
                but what i picked up today?
poor soul...
it really reads like the saddest poem about
love lost or not experienced:

24 Sep      ATM                  £40.00-
25 Sep      BAC                   £20.00+
25 Sep      POS                   £2.83-
25 Sep      POS                   £9.05-
25 Sep      D/D                   £12.49-
26 Sep      BAC                   £40.00+

Account         Balance       You Can Withdraw
8XX8              £58.13           £10

26/09/2018         19:13:35

that's a sad poem...
     and that's not the first or the last
i've come across,
most people in England do this,
order a mini-statement
and then drop it at the ATM -
it's as if, they can't believe their eyes
with what's shown on the ATM screen...

sure, perhaps they have, yeah "have"
a savings account,
  but a current account,
that only has, just over £50?
   that's a really depressing sight to behold...

and to be honest:
among the majority of English people...
that's the norm...
    if you're looking at someone with
over 500 quid in their current account?
  wow...
   i mean: that's like watching
a falling star or something equivalent...

the ******* the phone?
the one who i asked to decrease my overdraft
limit slowly, by £250 a month or
whatever the hell it was,
so i could get out of a -2000 quid
temporary debt of an overdraft?
**** me... she actually complimented
me on my money savvy-
  (can't spell the adjective) -
            which was a surprise of sorts,
like finding licorice hidden in
a desert...

             but this poor soul...
   what can you do:
   if you think you can spend more than
what you receive -
and never, for once:
  hold back, suffer,
      have one of those cold turkey
nights, riddled in bed, insomniac,
riddled by hot and cold sweats -
because Jackie Boy wasn't down the throat
of one his no. 1 fans...
  
or you go cold turkey for a week
without smoking...
trying to think of nothing but carrots,
or occupying yourself by eating
nuts...

   happens...
    **** me... 56 quid as a bank account
balance...
                guess no one is saving for
anything these days...
    why save... when you can fall into
debt, and be assured the security of debt
with the minimal, incremental
security repayment of the debt -
   no lending agency will bother you:
if you pay a regular minimum back;

an idea of sorts.

Dear Poet Friends, over the last few years I have seen some of our poets make passing remarks about Van Gog, thereby displaying their interest about this talented painter, who had died unrecognised!  Vincent gained full recognition posthumously, for which his brother Theo’s wife was greatly responsible. Hope you like this short and concise true story in verse. Best wishes, - Raj

   A TRIBUTE TO VINCENT VAN GOG’S
                      SUNFLOWERS
                        B­y Raj Nandy
  
”One may have a blazing hearth in one’s soul
  and yet no one ever come to sit by it. Passerby
  see only a wisp of smoke from the chimney and
  continue on the way.” – Vincent Van Gogh(1853-1890)

A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY :
Though during his brief life-span of 37 years he had
remained almost wholly unknown;
His artistic talents began to exhibit itself during his
early years, -
To become a colossus amongst post-impressionist
painters in his later years!
The son of a Dutch clergyman, he had worked in
various capacities, -
In his uncle’s art gallery, in a bookstore, and pursued
theological studies in Amsterdam University.
Also followed by a short stint in Belgium’s coal-mining
district as a lay missionary!
At the age of 27 years took to painting with financial
help from elder brother Theo,
Who encouraged and helped him for the next ten years
or so.
This was the most creative period of Vincent’s life,
Followed by an attack of dementia when he cut his
own ear lobe risking his life!
On 27th July 1890, he shot himself, bringing his
great artistic career to a tragic end!

SERIES OF ELEVEN SUNFLOWER PAINTINGS:
Vincent commenced his famous sunflower series
to decorate his house in Arles, France,
While anticipating his friend Paul Gaugin’s visit in
advance.
His first four canvases had paintings of cut sun -
flowers in bunches of twos and fours;
Painted in Paris during Aug-Sep 1887, which the
world still adores.
But his later Arles series of seven still life canvases
are better known to us;
And this series of paintings had made Vincent
internationally famous!
The most valued of these seven is a vase containing
a bunch of 15 sunflowers, -
Now displayed at the Art Museum in the city of Tokyo;
A Japanese firm had paid 40 million dollars at an
auction for this masterpiece to show!

                    A SHORT CONCLUSION
Vincent brought his passion for sunflowers from his
homeland in Holland.
Which became synonymous with him like those ‘water
lilies’ with his contemporary painter Claude Monet.
Vincent painted the various stages of the flowers in bloom;
From its budding stage till it wilted and swooned!
Chrome yellow and yellow ochre made them look fresh;
And arid brown and somber shades showed its wilted stage!
Thus his paintings covered all angles of spectrum of life
itself;
In turn reaching a deeper understanding of how all living
things are tied together and made !
His explosive energy was displayed through his vibrant
shades of yellow.
Using red for passion, and green for conflict to show.
Grey shades were used for life’s inevitable surrender,
with blue symbolising infinity;
Thus this Dutch Impressionist painter harnessed a
moment of time in eternity!

Foot Notes:-
Dr Jan Hulsker, a foremost scholar on Van Gogh, had said that this Sunflower series of paintings brought Vincent eternal acclaim & fame! During his short life span he made 700 paintings, 1600 drawings, 9 lithographs & one etching. His ‘Potatoe Eaters’, ‘Red Vineyard’, ‘Starry Night’, - are all famous paintings. Paul Gaugin, & Claude Monet, were his other ‘Impressionist’ contemporaries. Impressionism  emphasised changing qualities of light & colour, visible brush strokes, open composition,  creating an impression of a moment of time! Derives its name from Claude Monet’s harbour painting titled “Impressions & Sunrise”. This art form became popular in 1880s and 1890s.

I don’t mean this

I take it back so don’t get too

excited, but

You’re my broken time machine promise—

my not mine—

the arch of your feet and that look you shot when i said that

first nice thing I ever said and it made me uncomfortable

Your

demeanor is the taste of ginger

and your condescension is just as spicy and you’re

the lights on the highway at night that always calmed me but never had a name before I could recognize your handwriting,

and I cried in the kitchen with the lights off over nothing,

and thought about how you’d think it was funny.

we Ten Dansen yes

we hellbound dyslexic aspiration

we big ideas we no execute

we who we wanna be

we do what who we think we wanna be do

we the ****** poem I laughed at not

cuz it was stupid

but cuz it was true and this is stupid

You’re a beer on the pavement and

drunks run in the family

You’re a korean bbq in the city at midnight.

Is healing good for me?
but I'm intricately attached to these scabs and scars
I hold them so dearly, I don't want to let them go.
Is healing my current foe?
but these roots are dead. What will grow instead?
Uncertainty is a fright to me
And maybe the light is too harsh
Cause I love my shadows, from the tip of their nose down to their toes
They've been my constant comfort
Healing light is too blinding
and my vulnerabilities are intricacies only I and my shadows are minding

We as humans define our fears by that which we can’t control. Those things that stand just outside our physical grip but lay within the range of our persuasive comprehension. For control translates to security in whatever realm of life we seek, and many hold to that security as a lifeline for social and personal survival. The same survival techniques that have dictated our every move since the dawning of our time, but now finds reformed salvation in the egocentric world that we humans have so maliciously conquered. And though the means by which control is obtained changes from era to era, the quest for it still holds the same aggression and ferocity by which we have pursue it since before mans evolution. Holding complete disregard to everything in our path if only for the pursuit of this so called happiness. Perpetuated happiness that has been malevolently twisted and manufactured to fit the fantasies of those who deem it worthy. Regardless of the overt subconscious damage being done to those who adopt these practices. Regardless of our fellow man who gets forgotten and dismembered in the dust. Regardless of the destruction that is then committed upon the earth itself. All in the name of perceived happiness and an unwillingness to accept change into our lives. And though this phobia of what we cant control dictates the steps we take and mistakes we make, there is still hope. Hope for free thought and disconnect from the need of control. An acceptance of a blind destiny. Not a destiny for those unwilling to take the reins of life and influence it as they see fit, but rather one who understands that the reins are not theirs to control. And though control might be had from time to time, there is the awareness that it is fleeting. That it is always in flux and though the heavens might smile in your favor today, tomorrow they might turn their back to you all together. So rather then embracing that which we can control and discarding that which we cant, shouldn’t we be accepting that by which we cant control and forgiving ourselves for clinging onto the momentary continuity within our lives that is control? Or are we doomed to always put out mental, physical, and spiritual wellbeing on the line in order to obtain that transitory sedative that quells our animalistic needs?

Sep 28, 2015- A cocktail party is a fad in big fat weddings nowadays, and so have elaborate and voluminous cocktail gowns! But before you head to buy such an outfut, it's best to evaluate your body type and choose something that offers comfort, says an expert.

Divya Sisodia, fashion stylist, VioletStreet.com, an online shopping destination, has shared tips on how to choose a cocktail dress that can flatter you:

* Before picking a cocktail dress, evaluate your body type on whether it is pear shaped, rectangle shaped, apple shaped, petite, bony, boxy or full-figured.

* Instead of blindly following the trend spotters, opt for a dress which is comfortable and suits you. For example, apple shaped women, who carry most of the fat around their abdominal region and often have a large bust and waist, but narrow hips, must opt for soft fabrics rather than fabrics that would cling to their body. Cocktail dresses with flowing or A-line cuts are perfect for pear shapes, as they silhouette the hips beautifully.

* Full-figured and plus size women must choose dark coloured dresses that make them look thinner.

* Accessories are a great way to add oomph to an evening look. It can help to add one’s own flair to a dress that might be beautiful on its own. Even a simple black dress becomes a style statement when paired with a pair of edgy earrings and spiked heels. You can also use interesting or chunky neckpieces to divert attention to your upper body than to your lower body.

* Don’t try to fit into ill-fitting cocktail dresses as they will only make you feel and look uncomfortable.

* To create an hourglass delusion, highlight your waistline. Blouson dresses that gather around the waist add a curve to the upper hip and show off your perfect legs. You can further enhance your waistline with a wide belt or corset belt in a contrasting colour to your cocktail dress.
