ORDER SPEAKING OF PICTURES … These Pale Hands Accent Indonesian Love Dances. The formal dances of Java and Bali are full of a strange poetry of movement, usually expressed with tortured geatures of the hands. Pictured here are the hands of Devi Dja, a Javanese dancer who performs with her troupe in the Sarong Room of Chicago’s Bali Java Restaurant. With her hands she accents such tales as Bedoyo, love story about a young girl who falls in love with the statue of a god, brings him to life, woos him, then loses him. It is, like most all of Devi Dja’s repertoire, an authentic part of Javanese court and temple culture. Prior to the war, Devi Dja toured Asia and Europe with a large troupe. Since April 16, 1943 she and 10 members of the original troupe have run the Bali Java. Shortly before its first anniversary, Devi Dja departed for Hollywood to do her Temptation of Buddha dance in M-G-M’s “The Picture of Dorian Gray.” ….. 1944 LIFE Magazine Picture, A5961A. 19440515

” We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine,law,bussiness,engineering,theres are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance,love, these are what we stay alive for.”
I interpret it like this :
Poetry is a way of life. Its not just words put together to sound nice. To live life you need to work but just because you work doesn’t mean you can’t live life truly. We all need poetry, beauty, romance,love in our lives to actually make it complete.
Just want to hear other peoples views. =)
Thanks in advance.

I am new to YA. Since I love Poetry, I decided to check out the poems posted and see what kind of feedback is given. I went back a month or so.
Anyway, in the midst of my perusing, I found myself drawn into the interaction between two YA members. Seems one is a 48 year old man who has been married for 26 years, though he admits to lusing after the opposite sex. Admittedly, he was abused as a child and often contemplates suicide. Themes often refected in his poetry. Then there is the gal (a member since 2/07) who claims in her profile to be a sweet, caring, smart, creative,and funny 20 year girl. But the more I read, I found myself sucked into their soap opera. Imagine my surprise when the married man proposed via a poem to girl several days ago. And she said, “Yes.” When asked about his wife, he mentioned that she didn’t want kids and he did. It took him 26 years to realize that was an issue?
Am I the only one who thinks this girl is crazy to consider marrying this guy???
Annabella-I noticed that. Is plagiarism a big problem here? I really can’t abide that. Are we allowed to point out those who do it? Thanks
