#123

#124
ive written like two (2) poems in my adult life
#125
when i was in secondary school like 14 years old we had to write poems for english & they were published with a bunch of poems from other london schools to be sold back at exorbitant prices to smug parents.... anyway i found a copy a while back and mine is like the only poem in the whole fuckin thing to have like a reasonable attempt at meter and non-forced rhymes and marxism as a dominant theme lol

Proletarians
arrive at communism

by the low way of mines,
sickles,
and pitchforks -
But I,
from poetry’s skies,
plunge into communism,
because
without it
I feel no love.

im not sure if i really like or really dislike this bit but its one of the two

hahaha, though i've written seriously hundreds or even thousands of poems, i am still allergic to meter, and any attempts to do so just drive something in my head completely bonkers. that's why i write fraud poetry (prose poetry), which i've got something of a better sense for anyway

also i did love that line but yea, i thought it was maybe too... something... to include... on a shitty tumblr that nobody ever reads...

#129
i tried to write nonmetrical poetry once and it just felt, iono...... wrong.... i enjoy reading it but when writing poetry i get really hung up on rhythm and syllables..... it doesnt always work though lol, in that one i posted there were a whole bunch of awkwardly jutting lines
#130
haha, i remember in that poem really liking the one type of line and really hating the other. but i dont remember what they were or why.

when i'm writing in verse i can basically only focus on the length of the lines and whether it looks 'right,' i mean other than just saying things
