How to Write Poetry
newbabylon:
In order to write poetry,
it helps to separate
complete sentences
into individual lines
like this
You may also
isolate small words as single lines
to give the illusion of profundity
Like
Such
And if that doesn’t work,
you can always
end the poem
with a random word,
as a single line,
as a single stanza,
for that much beloved dash of post-modernism
