WAR (my thoughts)

It is ironic. This guy writes a poem that expresses the horrors of war and here we are all fighting over a fucking poem. Well done, people. Imagine if we had something real to bitch about!

 

Well it's a poetry forum...?

prose
Concise Encyclopedia Article Page 1 of 1


Literary medium distinguished from poetry especially by its greater irregularity and variety of rhythm and its closer correspondence to the patterns of everyday speech.

Though it is readily distinguishable from poetry in that it does not treat a line as a formal unit, the significant differences between prose and poetry are of tone, pace, and sometimes subject matter

 

Maybe proofread next time?

 

Yes iceman and do wash your hands and clean your fingernails before using the keyboard wont you?

 

Yeah thanks I think I knew that I was suggesting ways in which rhythm could be better used, not misunderstanding the nature of the piece...

 

Alright, this is childish.

 

soz mate didn't grasp the context at first. bein up for 22 hours don't help... Why duz RHYTHM not look like a proper word

 

I think because it's all consonants (ya I know Y can go both ways)

What most people don't realize is that there IS no such thing as misspelling. Before English was standardized you could spell a word anyway you wanted ;cat, kat, katt...etc. As long as the reader knew what you were trying to say one spelling was no more ligetamite than any other.

You could also make up your own words or use words in ways nobody has before.example: Shakespeare was the first writer to use the word "impress" to describe having an impact on someone. Until then it was only used in it's literal sense, ie to make an impression in the sand with your finger.

The dictionary is not the word of God .
