The state of poetry is such Yes, it's the very soul you touch When rhyme and reason is your spear When words you write seem to endear And many read your dissertation Finding fault with your creation Invidious the state they're in Invidious a state within
You're in the pentagon of time Three sides are paper, ink and rhyme It's a reflection that you see A soul of words you want to be And thoughts precede the words you write And therefore you can never hide The evidence, the words are there The very moment you despair
Such is the state of poetry Yes, in the pentagon of time Where all the words I catch are mine And if I trap the ones that rhyme I'll write a kiss my valentine And if I trap the one's that don't I'll have no poetry...my kiss is lost And I will envy those that write Kissing you into the night

A very Interesting Prespective. It is quite nice but I have one question what does this line mean "And if I trap the ones that rhyme
I'll write a kiss my valentine
And if I trap the one's that don't
I'll have no poetry...my kiss is lost"
why does it matter if the poetry rhymes or am I misunderstanding. Either way I truly like your poem. |
