Poems don’t have to rhyme, free verse it isn’t a crime I can write what I please—don’t call the police. Must I play the game, rhyme and spill intimate things? Can I develop leitmotifs without rhyming riffs? I could claim I’m writing prose - yeah, be one of those. No one can rhyme all the time. I can refuse—I’m no Dr F-ing Seuss, Damn it! ? See? THAT didn’t rhyme. (sirens in the distance) . . Fun songs for this: Ain't It Fun by Paramore It's All Your Fault (with Katie Shore) by Asleep At The Wheel

Nice one Anais, I love rhyme and it's only rhyme I do other than the odd acrostic and even it's mixed with some rhyme. I don't feel able to do any other type of poetry so I play safe and only do rhyme. I'll send you a SM later as your bio makes me want to say a few things regarding it. Have a great day, Gordon

It's hard (for me) to make natural soinding rhyme. What's an SM—how do I see them?

Wait! Which one is Peter? Gotta keep my elitists straight. This is the closest thing to the Kardashians PS has to offer

Peter's on my right (is that stage left?). Hey, I could accept exclusive.. but elitist? I'm just a lowly college student. *Innocent look*
