What are you looking forward to this year?

[Mattyhitman]

I am the Weıghts & Measures Vızıer who thrackets and crimps
the whack-jobs and the pimps
who blow theır frıkkın trumpets
whılst sıppıng tea and chompıng crumpets;

The Great Treasures are found
precisely where Lyle abounds---
Quinkly Quine, the clock strikes 9
then the Thracket bristlingly starts to whine:

"An ace in the hole was certain!
but now I'm faced with Holy Curtains!"

Brock, kudo's for trying but your poems are constructed incorrectly.

If it's a 4 line verse then ideally the 1st and 3rd line should rhyme, in turn so does the 2nd and 4th. Repeat and rinse.

This will offer a greater flow to the poem and read alot deal better for the end user.

well thanks for that advıce, but thats the beauty of free verse or freedom ıf you lıke---you can say or wrıte whatever and however you want. I try not to be too restrıctıve whılst freely expressıng myself. Dont box yourself ın to a set formula.

I like a poetry form called Haiku.

They try to paint a picture,go deeper or say the most in the minimalist way possible usually its written on three lines and sometimes has two meanings.

Shiny black raven
Darting through the morning mist
Flying through the air

From some I wrote years ago on the back of a Haiku book.

I fall
Into the receptiveness
Of your left eye


Nature all
law
cold murderess


ting ting ting
metal rope
On bare mast


twirling splinters
of
deaths wind


nothing
is something
compared to this.

Pat my fury head
feed me and clean up my shit
you slave.


Two queens on the turn
a knave and a king
on the river

Yeah its like painting fast with words.

Go on then you two, start a poetry thread. It will serve two purposes, it will provide an arena in which to express yourselves poetically and save us all from having to read any more of your lovely compositions,

but really, if your mission
is to extricate traditions
to generate and motivate
with your rapid fire renditions

Then there is only one thing for it
and many will implore it
on bended knee with hands on eyes
your poetry makes wordsmiths die

so take it with you, set words free
and save us from the misery
if I have offended I will show repentance
just spare me from another sentence

Very good, I've never liked the gay rhyming stuff myself

Can appreciate the skills and fruitiness involved though.

I must be gay then as I much prefer a poem that flows as Greenbeanz did. Great effort Beanz ! Rather than the other stuff that just sounds like garbled jibberish from a patient in a mental home, bit like your's Andre
