Array ( [sid] => 29458 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => THE PRONOUN I [time] => 2003-12-15 20:33:43 [hometext] => A short little poem with much thought! [bodytext] =>

The window says it's "I"
Reflecting it is "Me."
Two, like pronouns, agree.
"She" used is safe, not "I,"
precariously exposed, deny.

"I" was a prostitute, not safe!
"She" was a prostitute, protected.
"I" was a homosexual, horrid chafe.
"He" was a homosexual, unaffected.

"I" committed murderous deeds.
Using "He" like wise, misleads!
"I" can't say I'm sorry.
"She" can say it easily.
Yes, using "I" is hard,
while composing poetry!

"I" admits the blame & shame.
"He" or "She" covers the same.
"I" was a wonderful person,
bragging, distain....
"She" was a marvelous cook, refrain!
Yes, using "I" while writing
poetry present a strain.

The pronoun "I" is small,
powerful, not casual.
Be careful, not cruel.
For "I" is you!

Very true, and nicely said! I've found it's almost invariably easier to say something about yourself in the third person. This is something all should keep in mind, beautiful job . . .

This is very unique. I had to read it three times just to take it all in. Considering how short it is, that is quite a bit to realize! Very nice work, Connie Sue!

Come to think of it, most of my poetry is in the third person. 'I' is indeed very complex!

Truly,

You remind me of my son when he was a little boy (around 5)

I was dozing on the settee. The door BURSTS open. A small body hurtles across the room and flings itself on my unprepared torso crying.......

"IT'S MEEE LOVELY MEEEEE"

Sorry to seem so flippant , your poem is well worthy of better comment but the mind sometimes flies off at a tangent.
