Hi writing.exchange! This will be the writing musing account of @maloki

I'll be writing about writing, and musing about poetry, as I'm crash coursing into it.

Most posts will be private! And the account is private.

If you want to follow hit the button and answer this question:

What are you hoping to gain from a mutual connection with this account?

and because of the brain fog it induced, I couldn't actually put words to what I was thinking.

Hopefully this'll be better though.

As I mentioned elsewhere, as part of my class we have a workshop group (working with the same people for the entire term). My first set of comments on the others poetry was lacking, and I'm trying to make up for it now.

However, I'm realizing partially WHY. Because I was just too stressed out by other courses, and not getting CSN (Student Loan in Sweden), so I couldn't actually think about the poems in a way that they deserved.

What's your favorite type of poetry?

Who thought I'd end up listening to The Rose That Grew From Concrete by 2pac, as part of studying #Poetry

Here I am, and I'm loving it:

Enjoy experiencing something new and viewing something in a new light.

We mapped it out
One way
Way back
Same time as there and back

It doesn't feel
Double far
Yet we dread the tour
Same time as there and back

Remind yourself
an extra walk
Is good for the heart
Same time as there and back

Wonder if poetry about IBS would be readable. Or just eccentric shit posting

empty pot
a clean-licked
spoon
resting face down

Empty room
All alone

Empty stomach
Filled with sugar
Empty

CW death imagery

Ice cream
With a side
of poetry
For breakfast,
With cramps for dessert

The belief that
Sugar will quench
my thirst
When it only makes it worse

Ice cream
for breakfast
With cramps for dessert

I need one more poem tonight. And I'm kind of empty...

Can someone share their favorite Free verse poem with me?

How many times do your read your poem out loud? After your think you got it, or while you're figuring out the kinks?

I'm having so much fun right now writing a villanelle about my grandmother's dinners/dining room

#Poetry #AmWriting

Looking for more #Poetry people or #poets, or people who #AmWriting #Poems, or maybe just #AmReading poetry!

I want to follow you, and talk with you!

This is an interesting perspective today, my brain is a bit fubar, so I'm actually writing this assignment in English instead of in Swedish, because it's the best way to progress.

And I'll just work on translating it later. Or ask if I can submit it in English. Should work right?

Today I get to do something "fun" I get to play around with poetry. Got some exercises I need to do for class.
