Guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hey, Ploper here, (needless to say) It's been quiet a while since I've posted in this section, I actually haven't been posting much at all. I'm suprised I'm still in the top 20 members. But, anyways, here's what I'm coming back with. It's not my piece of work, it's from a comedian's (Demitri Martin) show called "if I" if you've seen this show, then please dont ruin the answer for anyone who hasn't. Evil is a deed as I live. God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt. To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss. Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help? Man, it is hot. I'm in it. I tell. I am not a devil. I level "Mad Dog". Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp, In my halo of a mired rum tin. I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin. Is evil in a clam? In a trap? No. It is open. On it I was stuck. Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web. Be still if I fill its ebb. Ew, a spider… eh? We sleep. Oh no! Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position. Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name. Both, one… my names are in it. Murder? I'm a fool. A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash, A Goddam level I lived at. On mail let it in. I'm it. Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet! A loss it is alas (sip). I'd assign it a name. Name not one bottle minus an ode by me: "Sir, I deliver. I'm a dog" Evil is a deed as I live. Dammit I'm mad. have fun, I'll post a hint, but please, don't read it unless you really can't get it. this is, in a way, downsizing the problem, look at the poem again Evil is a deed as I live. God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt. To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss. Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help? Man, it is hot. I'm in it. I tell. I am not a devil. I level "Mad Dog". Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp, In my halo of a mired rum tin. I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin. Is evil in a clam? In a trap? No. It is open. On it I was stuck. Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web. Be still if I fill its ebb. Ew, a spider… eh? We sleep. Oh no! Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position. Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name. Both, one… my names are in it. Murder? I'm a fool. A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash, A Goddam level I lived at. On mail let it in. I'm it. Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet! A loss it is alas (sip). I'd assign it a name. Name not one bottle minus an ode by me: "Sir, I deliver. I'm a dog" Evil is a deed as I live. Dammit I'm mad. ok, so you've got the term "if I" in that poem, find a unique characteristic of that term, then incorporate it into the whole poem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 unreality Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 ANAGRAMS!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 ANAGRAMS!!!! well, no, not anagrams. Though maybe you meant something else and used the wrong word? either way, keep guessing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 unreality Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 nope, I'm right ;D lol, sorry to be stubborn, but the word I used is the correct one. Look it up on wikipedia ;D another thing: everything except the last sentence is an anagram, and the last sentence is an anagram too, but a separate one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Start at the end and read backwards..says the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 unreality Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 the word is: palindrome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 nope, I'm right ;D lol, sorry to be stubborn, but the word I used is the correct one. Look it up on wikipedia ;D another thing: everything except the last sentence is an anagram, and the last sentence is an anagram too, but a separate one the word you're looking for is actually Palendrome, something that is spelled the same backward, as it is forward. An anagram is just when one word has the same letter of another, but the letters are in a different order, like Satan, and Santa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 With the exception of the last line (which I think should have been at the begining as well, maybe somethings wrong at my end.) It's exaclty the same fronwards and backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 last line looks the same backwards, to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 If the last line was also put at the top, then the whole thing would be a palindrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 yeah, I'm starting to think that I just copied it wrong sorry about that, because the whole thing is definitely a palendrome, but i might have accidentally omitted the first line.

Hey, Ploper here, (needless to say)
It's been quiet a while since I've posted in this section, I actually haven't been posting much at all.
I'm suprised I'm still in the top 20 members.
But, anyways, here's what I'm coming back with.
It's not my piece of work, it's from a comedian's (Demitri Martin) show called "if I"
if you've seen this show, then please dont ruin the answer for anyone who hasn't.
Evil is a deed as I live.
God, am I reviled? I rise, my bed on a sun, I melt.
To be not one man emanating is sad. I piss.
Alas, it is so late. Who stops to help?
Man, it is hot. I'm in it. I tell.
I am not a devil. I level "Mad Dog".
Ah, say burning is, as a deified gulp,
In my halo of a mired rum tin.
I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin.
Is evil in a clam? In a trap?
No. It is open. On it I was stuck.
Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web.
Be still if I fill its ebb.
Ew, a spider… eh?
We sleep. Oh no!
Deep, stark cuts saw it in one position.
Part animal, can I live? Sin is a name.
Both, one… my names are in it.
Murder? I'm a fool.
A hymn I plug, deified as a sign in ruby ash,
A Goddam level I lived at.
On mail let it in. I'm it.
Oh, sit in ample hot spots. Oh wet!
A loss it is alas (sip). I'd assign it a name.
Name not one bottle minus an ode by me:
"Sir, I deliver. I'm a dog"
Evil is a deed as I live.
Dammit I'm mad.
have fun, I'll post a hint, but please, don't read it unless you really can't get it.
