Pause…For Some Dramatic Effect

Bookmark
HomePoetryPause...For Some Dramatic Effect

O my gawd I’m about to come…

…to the conclusion that breaking lines is not necessary

          But rather a misleading prompt to deflect

And though minds are invited imaginations can vary

                                                                               be wary…

Of how a verse can have the worse vernacular defect

Sometimes

      it looks like a diarrhea of uncontrollable onomatopoeias

                                                                                       (eww)

It feels like loose vowels are all over the page left unchecked             

                                                                                          -a-                                                                

But I, I have the need to expel these wild and wacky ideas

It looks messy…

                       …with lots of rhyme and no reason to direct

There is no rigid structure or solid proper form here to gild…

                                                                                       …or adorn…

Other than just the ornery corny porny puns spun to build…

                                                                        …or erect…

But these ellipses may just be getting way too out of hand…

                                                                           …I feel the scorn…

From classical scholars when they may holler at such insolence…

                                                                                       …or disrespect…

I like me a poem with word play and alliteration in abundance

Full of insinuations…

                                      ….and innuendo to ambiguously project

Like a shapely dreamy wet silhouette with a fat assonance

   in intrigue and theatre so that my dear reader won’t object

All this was…

                  …was an exercise in laughs and gaffes with poetic faux pas

Needless gaps may make for some bad grammar it doesn’t add to the intellect

I may have been drawing at straws simply because I like to pause…

                         …looking for some of that erratic but dramatic effect
