A few years ago, I took a class with a professor who loved literature, but saw little in poetry. She thought that the form made all the difference, and that no poetry ever really caught her interest, her mind, and held it. She ended our debate with (to paraphrase) "The only poem I might be interested in...is one that is read both forward and downward."
So I tried.
I AM [.]
AM I[?]
[?] [.]
simple, I know, but give me a fucking break.
Here I am
- Some kinda four 'o' clock tragedy
- New York, NY, United States
- I am a writer. I believe all engaging writing is a precious balance between aural and visual aesthetic, emotional and intellectual depth. I am an "intense" young man, and I've yet to find someone willing to contest that claim. I am not rated G, nor is my writing. "Abandon hope, all ye who enter."
