RE: S oul'd O ut S hell (92)

in #poetry7 years ago

I like definite ending, with "her" as a separate verse. However, i am wondering whether interpunction is inevitable in this poem. My intuition is that it is often burden on poems rather than added value.

Sort:  

I agree with you on the “idea” of punctuation in some poems; however, I like to play around and as far as I am concerned, a poem in Never finished until it’s in hard print — just like any painting still in the studio is never finished. haha.

Haha. Yes, to some extent, i agree. Poem is ever transforming entity. But exactly because of that i am kind of sceptical of hard print. I mean, i have published two hard print books in Polish so far. They are, nevertheless, nowhere near to be complete representation of my poetry :) .
