Subject: Re: Mother’s Fury Author: andy [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 15:12:43 11/30/07 Fri In reply to: Sasha 's message, "Mother’s Fury" on 13:58:21 11/26/07 Mon Wittgenstein paradox: are our thoughts shaped by our words or our words chosen to express our thoughts? <<<<< Oh, so very well said! Sash, I know you remember the sonnet trail and our conversations well. Take heed Jess is so right about you and form poetry. This one is very special in that it expands beyond the expectations of the form itself. You know, the haiku still remains the basis for any poet worth salt learning how to deliver a line of poetry with any sense for expansion. When we discussed sonnets and I told you that the ending couplet was designed by William himself to tie the whole poem together. I never had to tell you twice how important those two lines are to a sonnet because you wrote couplets I could never write to some of the best sonnets I have read in quite some time. The same goes for haiku. The last line should jump from the other two and reveal something almost profound while still maintaining its union to the first two lines. I didn't mean to go off here only that I get so excited sometimes when I find something hidden in a corner that brings the "WOW" on as you my dear friend well know. Awesome! your partner in rhyme and crime, andy [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

I've only done a handful of them, but Kristen (flutters) and I were talking just recently actually, about getting back into this form again, so watch this space :) your support and encouragement is just so wonderful...
