Poetic Punctuation...

I don't believe, in punctuating, poetry.
A poem, has, a natural flow.
If you, punctuate or; if, you don't.
It's all about syllables, don't you know.

A Poem. Is About. Syllables.
And of course. strESSES. Too.
focusing on Capitalization, or syntax,
And Punctaution may very well ruin you.

A good poem. iT can be wirtten without,
gud speling, syntax, even grammer
punc,tuation, caPitals, or logisism
needn't be hammered.

A marvelouse poem moves like a stream
Divine inspiration breathing near
And in order to read such glorious poetry
In your heart all you need is an ear

try reading that out loud!

  1. could not agree more!
    BUT...
    what you forgot
    is

    how you might
    indent

    or

    space out
    your
    poetry

    (because that, too, matters... or does not...)
