Read this ****ing poem!
I'd like to start off by stating that I was required to use the same metaphor in the opening line. So, if you read my first poem, that is the one line that is the same. The theme is also like it (also required), but I feel this is my best one so far. Let me know what you think.
Circuit Fingers FFR is a circuit of the fingers. There's a spark of excitement within every arrow. In the air, the smell of anticipation lingers. Jolts of suspense flow from head to toe. You place your hands upon the board And send shocks up even to the Lord Who, to you, sends every bolt to follow. FFR is a flickering light And every Miss brings the dark. Failure switches day into night, The lack of light leaving its mark Until your taps match the 'rows And by your score it shows That you're no dog without a bark. FFR is an overloaded fuse. Far too many arrows at once. But mashing you have to refuse. No, you've not been doing that for months. Too bad it's all been for naught, As you've missed quite a lot And you're left 'lone in the dark like a dunce. FFR is lights out at the rehab center. You've missed not a meeting and think you're all better. You walk out the door, 'specting to never re-enter. But when you get home and see your new board, shining every letter, You realize you thought your addiction's done, But it has only just begun. By night you're back to it, more addicted than ever. |

Re: Read this ****ing poem!
Why don't you just keep one thread updated with all of your poems instead of making a new one every day?

there's nothing wrong with bumping a thread as long as you're adding to it

Re: Read this ****ing poem!
Regardless, it'd be cool to get some feedback from you and others..

Re: Read this ****ing poem!
It's alright for an FFR poem I guess? subject matter is fine. I won't comment on your structure, though, since it's a quick write. I could tear it apart pretty good though lol

It's a quick writing, with more time I'm sure you'd catch structural stuff. It's just that your punctuation isn't correct; you still have to use standard grammar rules with poetry. I usually think of my sentences in terms of prose to get the punctuation right and then rework everything based on my rhythm/rhyme scheme.
