Emily-Creations

imagery within me avail-
                         as I amble,down and vale


emily:is a 2(or sometimes 3) line paradox form(i labelled it thus,inspired by Emily Dickinson 
poem 1732).It may or may not have a title,uses a word with separate meanings,(or one that 
sounds the same,with a different spelling) with the intention to mean several things,therb to 
enhance the thought's ambiguity/enigma.
ED 1732 begins:   My life closed twice-
                                                               before it's close
SHAKESPEARE's Romeo& Juliet:   ask for me tomorrow-
                                                                                           and you will find a grave 
man

Sean Kelly November 6, 2009 at 8:50 AM You've " created " something here , with this form , Brian and whilst it is a short piece , it aint that easy to put together. So I'm asking my Aunt , the Nun to help me . She is also " in veil " ....

P Sheart November 6, 2009 at 7:45 AM I love this form! Will have to put it to use, smile. I think I'm getting closer to this now in my own writing. Thanks so much Brian. You put so much time and effort into this and it's so appreciated! Love Light Patricia
