[Writing] National Poetry Month

[jon_chaisson]

Call me crazy, Call me freaky, Call me childish, Call me Ishmael but I'm going to participate in National Poetry Month, which starts today, by writing either a whole poem or part of a longer one each day. A NaNoWriMo of sorts, I guess...(NaPoeMo?)

I'm sure most of my poems will end up being crap, but if I hold myself to this for the whole month, I think I'll at least come up with something halfway decent. And if it does, I'll post it here. Yeehaw! :)

I'm sure there are those out there who'll say I'm doing it wrong! Like I responded above, I just put pencil to paper and roll with it...very much like how I write prose as well. I don't really pay attention to how it's done, I just do it because I like it. :p

And that is the best reason there is.

It's why I write it. And I don't know much about form...I just write.
