Ah, alas, these are dark times, sir.

In other news, I do have a new poem, but I fear it will not translate to the forum format well.
Cold silence has a tendency
to atrophy any sense of compassion
between supposed lovers.
Between supposed brothers.

THIS. IS. SPAR -shot- ... *gurgle*
I believe in you.
Maybe it's a condition, ever think of that? No, no you didn't. You never thought, "oh maybe he's sensitive about his invisible eyes." Maybe it's a skin condition.

"Maybe she was born with it..."

I seem to have found the solution. All thanks to your unwavering faith in me. ;)



Is meant to be read in alphabetical order by columns, but you can always try it other ways too. :p

I'm strongly considering cutting the last W stanza, as I think the V stanza ends it much better.

Edit: I see errors already. X__X Oh, well, spotted them in time for class at least.

I'm not too proud of this one, just kind of wrote it on a whim. Was trying to play with sound a little bit. Blah.

I like that one actually :) (and nice job on the update. I like what you did with it. Seems very you. ;))

You have the aliteration down, what I would suggest it paying more attention to vowel sounds in between. These are my favourite lines here, soundwise:

"letting ourselves wait for an easier salvation
despite that we were helplessly drowning in
our own appetites, brazen starvation"

I like the long 'a' sounds in wait and salvation, brazen, and the rhyme -which surprised me- with 'starvation.' There are long 'i' sounds too with 'despite' and 'appetite.'

Not so fond of the last line, I guess because it feels more decorative rather than substanial. Overall I like it though. :). Go send it somewhere! :p

I'm going to bring it class tomorrow and see what they think of it. May go work on it some more afterward, will take your comments under advisement. :)

Playing with form again?

When my brain works out all those definitions I might have something more to say about it. Feels less like a poem and more of a concept playground.

:)

I... don't even know what this is, but, my God, I'm not about to look a gift-muse in the mouth.

Someone tell me what this means.

Would you be dreadfully disappointed if I told it reminds me of another poem?

I'm not sure I know what that one was either.

Wow, um, thank you!

I have to ask, though, what did you like about that one? I've always put in in my pile of "meh" poems, personally. :p
