RE: The Poet's New Clothes

in #freewritehouse6 years ago

I'm not a poet, but I know what I like, and I love this!
You really get good mileage out of little words - this -
This suit carefully and skillfully built to last
and last and last

Built almost like a haiku, words artfully arranged. I know that suit. Those things in our closet that will never wear out and we hang onto them, while the things we love most get stained and faded and worn thin with many washings. Clothes without loads yet - I like the rhythm and sound. You're a natural at this.
