would be better if the first line had more 'rigid cadence'.
yes. always so.
Hey razorgrin! Posting soon? Hadn't read this, actually come to think of it I may have overlooked your poems. Love the word pickman. The 2nd couplet is my favorite, even though "moon-trees brew" seemed awkward, or maybe because.
With this club you're not affliated,
This line is an inversion, not really a recommended technique for world shattering poets.
I fail to see how you can write about anything other than that which you know, even a complete fantasy is known in some way by the time it is written.
Ah well that is just me.
I think there should be a comma, if not a semi colon after "thesis bound"
Politics always seemed a lose - lose game to me.
Hi Nicholas,
Well yes it ispossible that I have the tools of a poet, or maybe I am slowly gaining them. However this poem was written with its ultimate intended audience as people who are not poets, the bulk of humanity.
Thanks for responding to both my poems.
I'm sorry i didn't see this poem sooner. I love the poem you have writen here. It's an interesting perseptive, and flow. 10/10 =) And I can't wait to read more of your work =)
Hi Nicholas,
Thanks for leaving a messasge, I must admit I am unsure how long I will keep working here, I have not found much to inspire me so far. But I will try not to judge too rapidly.
Pay no attention to jigg. I'm not usually one for this strucure, but damn fine work.
That's really damn good. Short but says a lot.
Absolutely bloody brilliant (and i don't usually say this) The way you include the atmosphere is superb, an overall fantastic poem!!!! All people who think different of this deserve a hiding!!
I agree this is an extremely gloomy prospect of a poem. Poetry is meant to be full of happiness and this is full of darkness, very dissapointing....
Excuse me Tarquin Del Boy Toilet.
I agree with devina. Stop critiscing everyone, when your poems are rubbish and don't even rhyme. Don't you have the time to make them rhyme (By the Way(by REd Hot CHili Pepers) that did rhyme)
Bye
Trul beautiful
Short, Precise and moving
I've got to go now. I'll have words with you later.
Bollocks. He nicked it off of the Kinks.
See what can be achieved through not stealing song lyrics!
Actually, this is bloody good.
There is poetry here. Of course there is. But it's not very good.
