I wanna pick you to bits

[Liar]

Next week in class we're going to analyze a poem from a rethoric disposition and construction viewpoint, and also use it for text delivery practices.

I was thinking of selecting some favourite from here. Any takers to have their stuff picked to pieces and watched though an electron microscope?

KillerMuffin took my poem Cathedral Grove and did just that - it was a terrific eye-opener and taught me a great deal. I recommend the experience to any brave soul.

You are welcome to use mine, but they are pretty simple compared to just about everybody else that posts here at lit.

 

[PatCarrington]

feel free, Liar, if you find anything you like.

 

[Angeline]

me too Liar. You can use any poem of mine you want--but if everyone says it's horrible don't tell me--live up to your name.



I really posted in your thread to say I just submitted my story for the Halloween contest. It's called "Autumn in New York." I'll shill for it even more when it's posted in two or three days, but I want votes damnit.

But you can really use any poem you want, too.

I'll add my me too...go ahead and use anything you want.



Edited to say: Ummm, that's the second time today I forgot I don't have "poems" on here anymore. Just a poem at present time. So, umm, Liar feel free to use that poem or ask for anything else you might remember that now lives only in the secret Cat archives.

Why not just pick one you like and think will work well, and then ask for permission? I doubt any poet would say no.

Tell him to use the Valentine's Day story.

that shopping trip shook you up huh??
; )

If any of my stuff is worthy, please feel free to use it. I think any poet who is concerned with improving their craft would jump at the opportunity.

BTW, I appreciate your taking the approach of "openly asking" for permission (victims?).

You're evil Ange. *G*


He said poem....thank god.

Howdy everyone.

I'm glad to see that so many of you volunteered to the rather obscure fate that my analysis assignment must have looked like. Well, the session is over. It was a group discussion thing, and I'll see if I can get my chaotic notes into something comprehensible sometime soon.

It was actually two poems that I needed. I was going to go with a poem of Pat's, but it wasn't on the site anymore. Then I was going to go with a poem of Angeline's but that was not on the site anymore either. Same thing with Cat. This habit of removing my favourite poems is really annoying, guys. I think I'll start copy-paste all I like to my hard drive instead if that keeps keeping up.

I was a little bit too pressed on time to ask y'all to dig them up for me. And since a part of the deal was to intepret and recite it, I also needed to memorize the things. So in the end I went with only one poem that was a little new to me, the übercool major bullshit by Angeline, and one that I knew by heart already, Quiet In A Corner by Linbido.

Well, I'll post my stuff here as soon as I have it ready for school. The emphasis is classic rhetorics theory. We've tried to pick the poems apart into disposition segments and structure models, as well as spoting the rhetorical figures used.
