The Midnight Summons Retrospective

And he said it was very well done. He liked the structure, and said that my enjambments worked well. We talked a bit about the form as opposed to other forms, and what form is to poetry. I walked home with a grin on my face. I couldn't help it.

I will show it to you when it's in its final form. Perhaps you can see the entire portfolio. We shall see.

The Midnight Summons

That's the title of my first terza rima poem. I don't know whether I'm going to share it with you. I'm glad it's finally in a state of completion, though. I've had something of a block on it for a few days. In a few minutes I'll go see if my professor is available to take a look at it and tell me whether it is (as I fear) utter rubbish. But even if it is, I'm glad I got it somewhere, at least.

I am soaked, because I walked to the library in a rainstorm to print this thing out. I like this state of affairs, even if I risk my hair dripping on the printed poetry.

Here I go.
