 SydneyKate 2008-10-23 . chapter 1I actually like this poem very much. I am actually very pleased with your form. my only question to you would be what function does putting the period on its own line perform? I mean no disrespect, but form truly is just an extention of your poem, and singling out of nouns is briliant because it is a shopping list, perhaps things observed... but this period (I know, I love "...")... I think, to better serve your poems function, would be to remove the "." . Think of it like this, here you are, driving around and pondering, when you are suddenly pulled from your thoughts because you are turning, and you note that the blinker is clicking. But, by having that "." there, you interupt that. You create a wasted second, you make it sound as if your list of nouns is all that is being wasted, all that needs to be there. You have reached an end, and have then started again.
Just something for you to consider. But it is a nice poem. |
