What do you think of my poem? Do you think i have talent?

Question

young lady hold your head up high
don't be trapped by the society's definitiion of prettiness, sexiness... liquidating looks
liberate yourself from the slavery of magazines
release yourself from the bondage of naked love scenes
realize and recognize that your reflection paints an picture of its own attraction, its own satisfaction, its own beauty
Your beauty aligns itself with unique measures and creative curves
Don't swerve into the traffic of tragic popularity
Don't drown in the blinded crowd- seek your own clarity
Let your light shine in all circumstances
Watch as your inner beauty advances
Take a stance in your confidence
Young lady hold your head high
Show your self strong
Love who you are
Aim to arise above the compromise of societal sickness

Answer 1

as a poet myself i have to tell you that you do have the talent, please don't let anyone tell you any different. your poem is really good. and im not telling you what you want to hear but when a poet see's good work they know it. and i am a pretty honest person and if you didn't have talent then i would tell you that you don't have any kind of talent and blah blah blah. but see i know you got it. and i would tell people who can't see it this.'' i am going to become famous for my work and if you don't like it oh well if you don't beleive me then you will see when i am famous.''

Some people will tell you anything to get 10 points, not me. So here goes my 10 out the window. Yes, you have talent. You have written a good essay or paragraph, BUT, poetry it is not. Granted poetry does not have to rhyme, but it does have to flow, It needs a rhythm. That's the basic poetic requirement. In poetic terms, it's called meter. Syllable counting is a way to create meter, you set up a pattern and keep it consistent throughout the poem. The words should flow from the tongue like water, not be short and choppy or too long and drawn out. You can hear rhythm very well when you read it aloud, I suggest you try that. Just remember above all else, poetry is not about writing pretty words, it's about writing words prettily.

Answer 3

Lemme see, 8 hour time difference, that would put you at about 7:10 a.m. Hitting the marmy a bit early, are we? Of course I recognize the form. It is a blend of converb, trigee, and . . . wait, no freaking way is that a haiku. The credit of course goes to TD after he's had a few lines of the Peruvian marching powder.

Answer 4

Keep writing. Enjoy what you are doing. Your poem is very strong, self explanatory and therapeutic towards yourself. This means a lot of scholars will punch holes in it. Be proud of what you have created and keep doing so.

Answer 5

It's great. I like that the language is compact and concise. I also like that your relying on images and metaphor. Personally I might break the poem up into stanzas or blocks, to change the physical look of it,

Answer 6

Keep writing and expressing yourself...it doesn't matter what others think. You are creative and thoughtful...make the best of it. Keep at it.
