elysabeth faslund - Answering Questions...sonnet

Inspiration, without hesitation br Leads to ramblings of a curious sort. br Meter, rythme, and moods? Throw all of them out! br 'I hurt' says nothing to readers about br br Why you 'hurt'. Concrete images do that. br 'He even gave my apartment key back.' br Then, revise that to five words. It's a start. br Readers will decide! Don't say 'broke my heart.' br br Revise! Revise! Writing is a word game. br Write your first draft. Revise it all again. br To these 'bare bones' add a dash of meter. br Salt rythme, pepper mood...nothing is sweeter br br Than a tight, polished poem! Of which you're proud! br Never forget...you're talking to a crowd.
