Grammar Lesson #1

By cadymae


In the story line you are writing
about the beautiful people you see
don't forget to write in truth.

But you don't know the truth.

You ought not make it up
But time is of the essence
you need to move on so

The beautiful becomes good

Good is now shorthand
in your plotline for good-looking
yet they are not the same

Kindness might not even be GOOD

the first rule is to not write
unnecessary plotlines created
with short-hand misdefinitions

    great poem, i think in poetry for me anyway i have guidlines but no rules. i just write without being to critical. how my reader sees it, is a language in itself. its the eye of the beholder, its how its interprited that matters to me. thought provoking. and i really dont know what the hell im talking about. but i leave you with the comment that your poem is awesome!

    I liked your ramblings. I've been staring at the screen wondering why I'm doing that 3 lines then 1 then 3 again thing. Every now and again the words or message seems to want that shape. but I don't think about that when I write. I just write. I think all the rest of the time. :)
