Final Thoughts of Kurt Cobain

|
Description:
What a tragedy. Poor Kurdt Kobain... I am still under the impression that it was a homicide, only because the facts rule out suicide. I won't get starded on my whole conspiracy theory, but if indeed the lead singer and guitarist of Nirvana did shoot himself, I would like to think that these were his final thoughts.
Final Thoughts of Kurt Cobain
I shout at you You give me cash I sound like crap I'm always smashed I find myself On MTV And still don't get Why they love me With every tune And every verse The sound I hear Only gets worse My words are true But make no sense It's a good thing The crowd's not dense I can't believe They're this obsessed But can't see why I'm so depressed So I'll get out Won't tell the band Won't tell my wife Wont tell the fans Way too much dope I'm still not dead Thats why this gun Is at my head Oh dear Boddah, This world's been mean Goodbye Courtney And Frances Bean This drug is quick I'm feeling numb Pull the trigger With my left thumb |

| *ouch* that hurt.. i think you did a good job of trying to get into his head. there is a cockiness to it mixed with so much pain... no one really knows what happens for someone who takes his/her own life.. it is always a tragedy. peace, ~Cat | Posted on 2005-10-18 00:00:00 | by magnicat | [ Reply to This ] | I really liked this poem... It makes you question waht exactly was going through his mind in his last hours. I am totally obsessed and in love with kurt so I have to like this. I just also wanted to say that cuddledumplin says that about all poems about kurt. At least she did about my poem Bleach (which u should check out). Although its not as good as yours. :) | ~LeAnna~ | Posted on 2005-04-11 00:00:00 | by RedRoseofBlood | [ Reply to This ] | Wow, I liked. Hahahha. The starting was a bit awkward, but mainly because I didn't understand yet where you were taking the poem. But yeah, I liked it. I'm not muchh of a big fan of Nirvana, but I do listen to them sometimes and know enough to get what's going on in the poem. I liked the part, | Won't tell the band, Won't tell my wife, Won't tell the fans. Haha, dunno why. Just like it. And I know this is completely besides the point but... [Maverique] I lub Courtney Love. So yes, I'm a bit indignant about his/her comment. Oh well. I'm just weird like that. Anyway, keep it up, hun. Good job :) | Posted on 2005-03-22 00:00:00 | by GiveMeTheGun | [ Reply to This ] | Ahh, good piece relating to the ideas that might have been running through his mind. It's a sad thing, fame with depression. I like how you added the fact that he didn't understand how his fans liked everything he did. Sort of ironic. Everyone loved his stuff but him. Oh well, tragedies happen all the time unfortunately. Good piece. Merry Christmas! | -blt | Posted on 2004-12-25 00:00:00 | by borderlinetears | [ Reply to This ] | Ugh, sorry I don't like this. I was 16 when Nirvana hit, and it was like being around when Hendrix was alive. Despite his rhymes (His were clever), I thought Kurt was a beautiful, poetic soul. I tend to be attracted to suicidal people (Nick Drake, Conor Oberst, Elliot Smith, Sylvia Plath, Ian Curtis from Joy Division, Anne Sexton, etc.). I'm not sure why. | | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by cuddledumplin | [ Reply to This ] | very cool, but there were a few discrepancies. In a suicide note they found that one of the main reasons he committed suicide was not because he thought the people shouldn't love him. He just thought there shouldn't be so large a following and he didn't like the fact that his popularity led to conformity. thats one major thing. The other was that he (supposedly) did tell his wife. The basic story is that she was on the east coast, he was on the west coast, and they were to commit suicide over the phone together. She (the filthy ...swine i suppose will work...) backed out at the last moment and (supposedly) tried talking him out of it at the last minute at which point he put the gun under his chin and pulled the trigger. That was the account i heard anyway... either way this was an excellent piece and i do believe that there was a conspiracy as well. I have a few Kurt poems too if you're interested, but yours was better (haha) | -drizzt  | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by Drizzt | [ Reply to This ] | Any true Kurt Cobain fan will enjoy this. I also think it wuzn't suicide but I wonder if we will really ever know. You did a good job incorporating pieces of his life into it, things that he would have been thinking about, especially his fans. | | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by WaxingPoetic | [ Reply to This ] | that was pretty intense. it made sense to me, too, knowing his history. i was just driving through Aberdeen this weekend on my way to the ocean, and i thought of him. it still is a depressed lumber town. anyway, this was very insightful. | | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by magnicat | [ Reply to This ] | I liked it. Very nicely written. Except for the mention of Courtney and Frances Bean,it might have been the description of any self-destructive star(an oxymoron?) | My theory? Courtney Love drove him to do it. Married to her,who wouldn't commit suicide?! | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by Maverique | [ Reply to This ] | I really like this poem. It has a nirvana song rhythm. Kinda like the song "dumb." one thing though is it supposed to be Buddah in the closing lines? and also, | you abandon the rhyme scheme, which kind of kills the rhythm for me in this part: So I'll get out Won't tell the band Won't tell my wife Wont tell the fans Way too much dope But really I love this idea, and it is overall a good write. P.s. Courtney Love in the den with the pistol. that is my guess. | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by solararia | [ Reply to This ] | I really like this poem. It has a nirvana song rhythm.

I wasn't always that big of a fan, but I still read a lot about the situation. I disagree with your homicide theory, but I've read a lot in that direction as well. Won't tell the band Won't tell my wife Wont tell the fans This sums up, to me, that actual unselfishness of his death. The few people I've met who have been suicidal were always open about it. They wanted others to feel their pain; they wanted help but just wouldn't accept it anyways. By him not telling anyone, I think that was just his way of saying goodbye without adding to the "drama." Nice piece. | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by Me Rambling | [ Reply to This ] | |
