Structure Or Mess

Free verse flow floats thoughts free, it’s a diary a ramble or rant with me, the need to express without the discipline or correction not listening it the route to relaxation via a messy string an eruption not stream Causing intimate personal revelations Pause, paint a structural level station, syllables and sentence length in repetition Differences not better worse but placement I like both to be honest that I promise structure rhyme repeats the same beats to a placement seat beat drum bing bang bong where as freestyle fingers the piano random ding dung dong Similar sounds not of a cycle or routine but that’s not exiting or rousing It’s the 8 o’clock alarm the 9 o’clock start 5 o’clock finish walk home in the dark Whilst shift work mixes up the morning night times no fixings, I think I freestyle when I need to rhyme and structure when I want to rhyme But I don’t judge either like up em self people who need to read 3 4 3 4 I can 8 1 5 9 5 4 Cus if it ain’t a pattern they are just telling you honest truth, if it’s structured they carved it not gave raw to you
