and post notes and photos about your poem like Maurice Yvonne.
I'm not sure if one would define this writing as a shape poem also known as concrete.
It's written so each block of the body of the work lines up perfectly. It has somewhat of a visual appeal. I've written between 50-100 poems in this visual style.
Can a poet compose poetry like music -like paintings -like a sketching with out affecting your poetry whatsoever.
The poem is exactly what you wanted to write. It's the cake the rest hopefully a delicious frosting.
there was a man
a small man
-a little man
-a tiny man
a small little tiny
man who found a-tiny-small-little-something
he pulled on it -and realized it had give
he pulled -this stretchy-little-small-tiny
thing and it kept stretching this was when the
small man - who was a flimflam man after all
realized he had a workable-fraud
realized he had found something
big -really-big it was more than a
stretchy band it was a movement
one he’d sstretchh beyond one’s expectations
you could recognize him -by his large
*mouth - and by his *tiny little hands
*optional
you may fill in the word *filthy before mouth
or before tiny or both as you please -please
armand~
