Hueg - | 320 6 Oct 2008 / #34One line poem:If you'd made it so the first line repeated itself it would almost be Skaldic. Most likely Hagar yes but it could be Horribly good.
Jova - | 172 7 Oct 2008 / #35And yet it seems to have filled your writing to the core with ripeness in that sweet kernel of a line. :)I enjoy fancy language but it has nothing to do with poetry.
Hueg - | 320 7 Oct 2008 / #36nothing to do with poetryIf you are looking at instead of reading poetry then you're right of course, it has nothing to do with language fancy or otherwise. It's probably instead the beautiful sound of nihility vacuously echoing echoingAll hope abandon ye who enter in writes an interested party upon spying a writer's workshop I forget who though Will Self probably. Pain, Unutterable pain Death yes.Am I positively capable of seeing the fancy language and enjoying it yes I hope we all are but do I have the capability to detach that from what makes it poetic. Negative. Good.No we're getting somewhere.I enjoy fancy languageThen all is not lost. :) Poetry the clue is in the name should only exist to delight not teach nor moralise. Or depress teenagers in schools across the land.Two out of three is antithetically bad. :)

Polonius3 993 | 12,357 16 Aug 2009 / #41A bit of tongue in cheek doggerel from the PRL period:KTO TY JESTEŚ? - POLSKI KMIOTEK.JAKI ZNAK TWóJ? - SIERP I M£OTEK.GDZIE TY MIESZKASZ? - W POLSKIM KRAJU.KTO NIM RZĄDZI? - JA NIE ZNAJU.Literal unrhymed translation: WHo are you? - A Polish serf. What is your symbol? - The sickle and hammer. Where do you live? - In the Polish land. WHo rule it? - I don't know (in Russian).(This is a take-off on the children's patritoic poem "Kto ty jestes - Polak mały...")
