Mind GolfA gestation to allow the info to grow to develop into opinions, feelings passions. a process that takes years happening under the surface when does one know enough to produce their own?
I used to believe that the best poets are youthful but not young and the best prose writers were aged but not old. i think i still believe this young people lack the patience to allow a novel time to grow and develop naturally they will either rush it, or leave it lie in an ever growing "unfinished" pile in the words folder on their laptop.
Its all a build up but for what?

These are a couple REALLY old ones that I haven't ever revisited to edit. However, they aren't rhyming and I do miss writing openly like this. Sometimes I feel that I might not say exactly what I want to with these rhyming restrictions.

Not a spot to think!
I want nothing of you
I love the absence.
this one reminds me of some of my old poems too strangely enough, i would revisit this and try and make it more general, less personal try remove the I's its a personal thing but they are one of my major pet hates in poetry i feel excluded when i see an "I"
I find you, face hidden in shame
The light is forever gone
You are the dog and I am the bone
Now this line and that poem i absolutely love exceptional much props
remember its not about not rhyming its about using rhyme to good effect to add to your poetry never to take away from it if you feel free-er without rhyme write without but you must have plenty of metaphor, simile and alliteration to pull that off.
