I hate to beg and sound like a tramp trying to seduce the would be reader, but I have a new poem I just scawled together in about three minutes. To me it's just feelings that don't amout to much, but I have many people suggest that I edit and polish my poems a bit before posting, so...

This is the first time I've asked someone to do a reading of a poem before I post it. Can I get a volunteer?

You can PM it to me if you like. :kiss:


That helped tremendously and I can see some room for improvement. Typos do occur when I just throw it together like that. I'm sorry for not catching them. Tonight is not a good night at any rate.

That's what editors are for, right CS? ;)

When they show up for work... :eek:

I'd like to take a look at it... I know nothing about what makes a good poem, obviously-look at mine- but I would like to help if I can... :)
 
Sorry guys, I thought this thread died and went into obscurity. I have to leave now for work. I'm running a bit late. I'll PM it to both of you tonight.

You can send it to me again too if you've made revisions. ;)
