I wonder sometimes
why droll observations;
recollections of a personal and
sometimes confessional nature,
(interesting enough in themselves – if well-written),
get called “poems” when broken up by
weird line spacing. Nothing against
descriptive prose –
but I don’t think it is truly
Poetry. You can call it that
if you want; I don’t
mind.
Dang it, you’re on to me.

Beleagured – you are rarely guilty of this. I love your rhythm and rhyme!
I just wish you would get more incendiary sometimes…

LOL! I like that. I really enjoy descriptive prose, but it’s not quite poetry, is it?
I saw this in a shop window, “I before E except after C. Weird, huh?” Just one of those brain teasers that has you searching for a hidden meaning.

The only hidden meanings there are that there are exceptions to receipt of that rule! Which an efficient deity provides.

I do agree. In fact, much of the acclaimed blank verse would, to my mind, be improved by removing all the silly stops.

Yes. It would be much more organic if they pulled out all those stops !
