A wandering of metaphor
A dancing pen that reaches far
A poem as a semaphore
A picture of a gleaming star

A soul that whispers in the air
"I strike within the wheels of fate;"
Who comes to find that wording fair
And tragedy assimilate

A feeler feeling out their rage
Yet without Hope they'll not Arrive
Thinker thinks of every stage
Who knew not that they were alive;

With poetry I came to see
That Feeling is the soul of me.

I didn't go line by line,
Instead I filled in lines
a a
c c
e e

And then went back to

b b
d d
f f
And worked on the parts I didn't quite have right, and then tied it up at the end with a GG that ties it together

definitely need more clarification

#

cool rhyme scheme

#

the meaning is way too deep

#

well not really

#

but the way you worded them with so much metaphors made it seem very deep

#

if its supposed to be an emotional one, try using less metaphors and clarify more of it

#

overall, a very creative, abstract poem

#

my judgment is a little harsh cuz im pointing out mistakes mostly

It was a pretty strange puzzle for me. I threw out pentameter because that rhyme scheme just wasn't clicking. Then, I had to figure what it would be about! Had no clue and it ended up being about like four topics that are relevant to my week. Mostly, I was just sitting there forgetting I had already used a suffix for an earlier stanza

The inspiration was from opening up to a friend about really getting into poetry and venting my disappointment and other negative feelings at the kind of hurtful way they said they weren't a poetry person.
