I’m not writing you a poem.
Don’t even ask me to.
I’m not scheming a
rhyme pattern,
and I’m not
rhythming
tonight,
not scanning, not
alliterating, and
definitely
not doing that
enjambment thing
that you go on about.
Victoria at dVerse is asking us to quadrille a poem poem tonight. I’m not.
Oh I love it… great way of curing a cold.

LOL – love the approach, the mocking parody and tone, which in itself, becomes the poem – kind of “this is not a love story” …. and here I was, thinking along the same fashionable lines and ideas – well done! 😀

Oh there are days when that’s exactly how I feel. Especially when you don’t feel well. But, by golly, look what you did with it! Feel better, Sarah.

Sarah!!!!
I am DE-lighted by this! Laughing out loud, and loving every line. The voice in this is just wonderful. I love this tiny rebel poem (I hate to tell her, but she’s a poem, despite her best efforts to the contrary. It’s okay. She can be a contrary poem. Often, they’re the best ones.)

I liked the part of the enjambment that one goes on about at the end.

A delightfully clever non-poem! (I enjoyed the enjambment too.)

I like the voice of this…a moody feel (or perhaps that’s my personal projection 😉
