POETRY

we live like outcasts
to justify the cause
because the structured world
is blind to the feeling kind
this is the heart
where every poet
dips their pen into their souls
to bring everything out
from the inside
and leave their mark
every image in our poems
is like mixing sand
and water to make a castle
to beautify this art
we are the movers
taking you on trips
to feel our highs and lows
our poetry moves like floods-
the current swift and strong
through the twist and turns
we leave behind in every line
this is our life preserver
we carry in our craft
when you are struggling
we come to your rescue
and bring you into our vessel
by wrapping this around you
like a blanket
to let the comfort of poetry settle in.

right on point

I really love the style of this poem. It flows beautifully along with the content.

Uh, oh

nicely done, agree with Tara about the rambling style working.

These are the weakist lines, and need replacements:

"the current swift and strong

through the twist and turns"

still, i'd didn't resort to "p" bashing,(?) because, this line

can be reworded, so it fits and acts as a transition point to the last eight lines, which are good and novel.

"we leave behind in every line"

Something to think about.

I think...

...this is easily the best of your offerings today -- the rambling style flows well and fits the subject matter. Nice words.
