Iambic is the Treachery I Speak
Don't trust the form - it'll fool you!14 total reviews

You have good imagery and a good flow with your poem and rhyme well-you are descriptive and write about writing-you write about iambic being treacherous but I do believe that it is tedious--I like where you write(Until a perfect sonnet takes the day-with both a rhythm and wile to air)and even to the write of a sonnet you find deceit--great job.

Thank you, Chita. Indeed, form is sometimes worshiped to the exclusion of content, which is just absurd.

Thank you, Knight :-). I adore writing about writing itself - there's probably only a very niche market for such subjects, but it's an ideal way to hone one's quill.

You're talking to an Iambic retard, friend. lol. This flowed well and I love 'For meter's only King if art is Queen'. Ugh, I think I'll give up on this meter stuff. Too high fluting. This concept was original and interesting though. Well done. luv jada

lol, thanks Jada. I'm fond of ridiculing form (even if I still use it!). I couldn't do it either a couple of years ago, but then it just 'clicked' and now it's difficult to write without meter ...
