AMERICAN SENTENCE REVISITED
Since the post a year ago on RWP #1 I have written a number of full length poems in different disguises which use this seventeen syllable sentence in way way or another. In reviewing them this morning I did notice that a few of the lines are actually fifteen or sixteen syllables here and there but anyway, if you're interested please take a look.

ReplyDeletePhew! It sure is, thanks BB!
ReplyDeleteBeauty-full!
ReplyDeleteThanks Philip, she is now!
ReplyDeleteIs this a story you made up?
ReplyDeleteHi Stan, Yeah!'fraid so...
ReplyDeleteOh by the way the tape in my van turned out to be Lou Reed Live with Velvet Underground 1969. I think you might have made it for me, I can't think where else I got it from. Anyhow...
No problem - keep applying the make-up!
ReplyDelete1969 - That's the one I meant...
Just a thought - 4th Millenium as a downloadable book - how do I do that?
Hi Stan, looks like we're singing from the same hymn sheet regarding Lou Reed.
ReplyDeleteAs for the 4th. you could send it the same way as you sent it to me and charge people via paypal. I'll e-mail you later, when I'm free.
I like this, especially "old boat race."
ReplyDeleteThanks Nathan, it's a bit of Cockney rhyming slang!
