What are words but mere words, without the emotional undertow that makes them poetry?
And what is poetry but mere poetry, without the reckless abandon that makes it love!

Yes!
ReplyDeleteSomehow, atleast some part of every poetry tends to be about love, more often than not.
Loved the phrase 'emotional undertow'
Okay, you both are starting to intimidate me. The last poem I wrote was rather bitchy. :D
ReplyDelete@Tangled:
ReplyDeleteHahahaha.... can I read that poem?
And I guess I was just overly generalizing in the earlier comment.
I am sure there are all kinds of great poems out there which don't fit into any definitions or conventions, and I am pretty sure I myself must have written a couple of bitchy ones myself at some point :P
Actually, those lines seek to be relevant only to my words, and poetry if it can be called that.
ReplyDeleteYours are free from such pointless constraints.
