The thing about writing is that to write is to lie. Writers are good liars, poets are good liars, actors are good liars, aphantasias are not! In my experience, I’ve learned that I better write about what’s happening at the moment or what I saw or experienced in the past as happened. It did work and I was able to write Iamb. Cheers.

I’m almost finished with my second poem. They’re not yet the way Mr. @stephenfry taught me in his book 🙈 but I needed to write it down. I’m sad and lonely. I’d to cope with these feelings somehow! And what’s better than words. So, yeah, both poems are dark 🌑.

Ladies and gentlemen. I am very honored to declare that I wrote me a poem. Some verses are good some are well let’s say awful is considered a euphemism towards them. It’s pretty crystal clear that i’ve pathetically tried but I am proud I’ve achieved sth before the New Year. I’m ganna leave it for a weak or two and improve it later.

I was reading some poetry when I came across this poem. I think it’s a good example of Iambic meter but before reading it remember Fry’s Trinity or the Holy S:
Savour
Serene
Stationery
