desperate attempts at poetry

Having missed last week's class, I couldn't help but feel as if I was flailing around when trying to write something this week. I'm hoping I'll get some perspective and inspiration tonight so that I might finish up my project.

Here is what I did today for poetry, I mean, if that is the kind of thing you came here to see.

Couldn't decide when to capitalize a new line or when to add periods. Do you think it looks better if each new "thought" is separated by a line break and a period?

I don't feel like the periods add anything myself. How about you?

  1. I like the allusion - some people were just made to punch (I feel that regularly). No, I don't think the punctuation adds anything. In fact, the quotes kinds of bug me too, would italics work instead (or would that be more of an indication of internal dialogue? I'm not sure of the repetition of "could," either...

  2. Yeah, I took the line in quotations out when I ended up using this for my submission. Figures you'd notice the same thing.
