Prose Poet Poem by Abdul Wahab

Prose Poet

Rating: 3.3


In me is a poet
Wonder

Hidden inside
So I continue

To write
But rhyming becomes

A hindrance
In blooming

The theme
And gets me stuck

To do redundancy
Excessive

So I quickly take a turn
And continue to write

Unrhymed
On the themes of love –cosmos

But without figures
They become only

Some opera shows
Of sentimental talks

I need to change
My course again

Which I take at ease
And continue to bring forth

New ideas and thoughts
Yet I wonder

If I have written something
Other than prose!

According to Romantic poets in the past there is no difference between poem and prose in structure save selection of words. As Virginia Woolf commenting on the fiction said that form is to be decided by the author It must be appealing as Plato said. We express; readers evaluate.If we are satisfied, no matter what others say because we are what we are.

Poets can express their feelings in any way they want whether it rhymes or not but of course it should not look like a prose too....well expressed poem.

Poet got the instinct which is natural and built by the surroundings......A poet can't discard whatever he sees...well done I am back, back from boredom
