Reckless | from Free_Dom_Fighter - Sunday, August 11, 2002 accessed 1238 times Supposed to be about a one-night stand... WE'RE WASTING TIME You look so fine Body recline Reckless delight FEELINGS THAT FADE Taken away End of the day Ready tonight REFER BEHIND All over my spine Shut your eyes blind Raise Fahrenheit SCREAM WITHOUT NOISE Pleasure and joys Daydreams and ploys Start to ignite PASSION WILL BLEND As we pretend There's a happy end Time will recite WE'RE NOT NAÏVE All make-believe Tomorrow you'll leave Still lonely at night DO WHAT YOU, WANT TO DO Just pretend: Happy end |

That was pretty good! have you experimented with any other meters? tetrameter, pentameter etc. The 3-4 beat lines are a little short and choppy for my taste, but I think your poem pulled it off ok. Read some Shakespeare, the man practically THOUGHT in Iambic Pentameter. I mainly use tetrameter myself. Variation is nice too, like four beats followed by three (I guess you could call that seven beats) keep rhyming for Jesus! (just kidding, rhyme for satan or whomever you damn well please!)
