Poetry in Motion

A purpose of graceful fluidity, such that moves with tactful elegance throughout. A noun; abstract yet direct and completely beautiful to all 5 senses.

The woman was like poetry in motion as she seemed to glide across the dance floor.

poetterware

Poetterware is a type of software mostly found on Linux systems, for example systemd, pulseaudio, policykit, consolekit, xdg-open, colord and more.
This software generally works very well and solves really complicated problems, but if it doesn't behave the way it should, you will have a hard time debugging the issue (e.g. via dbus), working around it (by quick hacks) or use alternative software. It may be written by Lennart Poettering or the freedesktop foundation or other participants in the ecosystem.

You're using Gentoo Linux with systemd? Yes, although it's poetterware it works very well for me.

poetic

Poetic is a word that describes your self expression. Being poetic is turning little things that no one would see right away and turning it into a wonderful meaning. To be poetic you must have a feeling of knowledge of things around you, taking things of your dreams and making it your papers reality.

"O he, he is a poetic rose of life flowers layed"

This line shows that he is saying that he has a special soul, unique from everyone. The speaker is explaining that he has a poetic personality.

vogon poetry

1. Poetry recited by a Vogon or by several Vogons, and is the third worst Poetry in the galaxy.

2. Any poetry recited in a slow repetitive lilt that goes on for eternity, and makes one want to yell at the poet, "Shut up!!!", scream, and punch him in the gob.

Ralph recited some poetry at the Arts Festival, and he went on and on and on, in a slow drawn-out lilt. After 15 minutes the audience got so fed up, shouted "Vogon Poetry!" and pelted him with rotten vegetables and used condoms.

wax-poetic

To "wax poetic" means to become increasingly verbose and romantic in speech. To become more and more like a poem.

"Wax" = increase, "wane" = decrease.

It has nothing to do with vinyl records and bullshit hip-hop, "yo."

"Not to wax-poetic, but your eyes glimmer like the ocean on a summer evening..."

poets of the fall

Poets of the Fall are an amazing band that hardly anyone has ever heard of outside of Europe. Pisses all over every other band that is out there. And then some. Check out their music on their website, or the repulsive phenomenon that is known as myspace.

Example: Poets of the Fall are the musical form of heaven.
