Shadorma: Reduced to This

I dunno. I think it works.
Read the poem first and then the notes.
It might make more sense that way.
Or not.


Always if
 You feel like you must
 Write and your
 Subject is
 Not the sort who would be cool
 The down-low is best


~The Cheese Grates It Poetically~




Notes:
First, the Rules of Engagement.
 Today we challenge you to write a paragraph that briefly recounts a story, describes the scene outside your window, or even gives directions from your house to the grocery store. Now try erasing words from this paragraph to create a poem or, alternatively, use the words of your paragraph to build a new poem.
So, I was getting ready to go to bed, and I just got through writing a post regarding my ideas about what's cool and what isn't in writing fan fiction. If you really want to read it, you can find it here
I'm extremely liberal regarding the rules when writing about fictional characters, rather more conservative when it comes to writing about real people.
I took my words from the last paragraph in my essay. 
It turned out surprisingly not awful.
I will go to bed now.

Post a Comment

We love comments, with three caveats.
Be cool, Fool.
Don't be rude, Dude.
Don't be a prick, Slick.
That's all, Saul.
I try to get comments published as quickly as possible. I don't always reply to comments on my blog, but I do try to visit as many people as possible when I participate in blog hops and I share links where possible to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and such so others can discover your work. I do read and appreciate your comments.
