[hometext] => This is impromptu, with no inspiration; I'm writing it now to see if anyone will go and comment on the rest of my poems.
[bodytext] => Words piled on words Magnificent new heights The art of verbosity and the loss of the short Who's to know which one is right? Diction is one thing Aesthetic power The gift to convey the scenes in your head Sweet, bitter or sour Is it a battle to overwhelm? Or a subtle entreaty? Is it a simple haiku Or a sermon to the needy? Is rythm important? Do we need rhyme? As a poet i question As i read line after line Freedom is given But how far should we stray? Is there a line that we cannot cross? Lest the meanings within give way? Is an essay in stanzas a narrative poem? Or is it a work with crude, choppy end? What do you call grace as you stare in the face Of words and lines that don't blend?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
