Crappy poem that I'll most likely regret posting later.




On nightmare’s silent edge
There’s she and I alone
Walking in pale sunlight
Comfortably silent

Actually, quite a lot of poets of the past measured syllables and plotted rhymes. All of Shakespeare's sonnets didn't end up having 10 syllables in every line with 5 meteric feet of an unstressed...

Thanks. I tried to make all of the dialogue fit into a 6/6/6/4 syallable pattern, but wasn't sure how it would come across.

Where do I go from here?
In the end, do I care?
It is all the same now
Since she left me

Destination unknown
Apathy my lone guide
“Where is it you take me?”
Oblivion

Understandable. I didn't think you were implying that people shouldn't use certain forms, I was just commenting on my enjoyment for free verse in relation to Odetta's saying that anything she wrote...

I think free verse is great. One only need read Whitman to see that amazing things can come from free verse.

Usually not great? That's amazing. Seriously.
