The Commoners Song
In time you’ll recover and absolve / push those scorned impressions aside / hammer down the jaded edges

He's no Poet
***He’s no musician.** / He doesn't make melodies through violin and guitar strings. / Yet he composed, haunting ballads in dramatic tempos,

Figurative Sadness
Why do people insist in the use of figurative language / I am not as blue as the sky *(simile)* / This sadness is not swallowing me whole *(hyperbole)*

Asides on the Oboe
The prologues are over. It is a question, now, / Of final belief. So, say that final belief / Must be in a fiction. It is time to choose.

CONSTRUCTIVE CRITIQUE v SOMETHING WORSE
Hi, below I copy a humorous hiabun, which I shared as an exercise to mentor enquiring and inspired poets to learn, so they might adopt and try different techniques and then give critique together with awesome comments... Yes, I used the words sex, sexual and sexy for context the rest was left to an individual imagination as in good poetry! / It included reflective commentary encompasses innocent classification terminology used in the critique, reading, examining, appreciating, understanding and writing of poetry for example: POETIC DEVICES (enjambement, duality, keriji, images, collocation, semantic, oxymoron, repetition, listing etc.), STORY (personification, characterisation, subject, context, voice etc.), IMAGERY (synaesthesia), STRUCTURE ( lineation, breaks, syntactic etc.), SOUNDS (syllables, rhyme, alliteration, pace, musicality, phrasing, beat, assonance, onomatopoeia, mouthed rhythms, patterned) and WORDS (preposition, determiner, verbs, adverbs, lexical, nouns, adjectives) used by poets, critics and academics... / And here it is :

Designer Andrea Moore defends models called 'gaunt and unwell'
A fashion designer has defended models who were labelled as "gaunt and unwell" on Facebook. / Andrea Moore's I AM range is sold at Farmers, and an image from its current campaign was posted on that company's Facebook page on Friday. / The picture features Chiara and Norina Gasteiger, who are twins represented by Clyne Model Management. Farmers customers did not react well to the now-deleted post.

Sometimes
Sometimes I feel like a sunflower lost in a sea of roses. Drowning out my sunshine with endless streams of red. Killing my words with the poison of your laugh. Bleeding out my confidence, replaced by curious venom. / Sometimes I feel like a tree lost in the comfort of the forest. Handing out leaves to cover up bruises. Letting me die over and over again to bring me back around every fourth season. Roots deep in the ground, no way to escape now. / Sometimes I feel like a monster in a halo of angels. I am the reflection of your nightmares hiding in broad daylight. I am the devil’s daughter pretending not to care. Claws sunken into my back whispering words of despair.

Runaway
It's this type of imagery, attached with a dark memory / Me and you had the same chemistry / When you left you had to take a part of me

adolescence (a paradoxical memory lane full of distorted images)
*chaste pecks from the super-sonic youth / numb lips flutter to the hollowed cheeks of normality / no longer the hand-prints on the guide book to hostility

Thoughts#17
Writing a poem. / There are lots of things that contribute to the outcome, the poem. / -Certain words hold a hard to describe sensation to them, they're made to evoke some feelings and also give a sense of unique kind of rhythm. Had the writer used a synonym, it wouldn't have the same impact on the reader. He's like mysterious chemist adding proper ingredients to his mixture to make it work perfectly.
