The Process of thoughts

[Alteine]

Hey guys,

I thought I'd try to play with rhythms. This is an experiment of sorts for me.

Enjoy!

The Process of Thoughts


Buzzards pick at solemn thoughts
That never materialize until they’re
Already deceased

How fitting that a child would cry
For days on end and never
Be noticed by my humble whim

[DanBierce]

Good. Now you might want to concentrate on sound. For example: "That" immediatly after "thoughts" clash, as does "and" right after "end."

Have fun!

[Alteine]

Thank you for the feedback! I wrote this one impulse, but should have paid more attention to the way things are said.

Definitely something to watch out for in the future

I think I disagree with Dan. I like the thought imbued in your poem, and the sound of it, too. The two ideas juxtaposed, intriguing.

[Pendragon]

I think it sounds like a wonderful beginning to a much longer poem. You might think about doing that

[Alteine]

Thanks for the input everyone, it's all greatly appreciated

While I didn't think about sound of words on this piece, I do agree that some words can be edited/removed to tweak the flow of this poem.

As for the length, it was originally fours stanzas, but I got rid of the last two since I found them excessive. Perhaps I'll add on to this in the future?

Thanks again
