Neither Poem by M.J. Lemon

I appreciated the review of Valsa George as well as the way of your presentation. Visited time and again.

Nothing really fowl, but I did hear Ginsberg howl. that you made him put away the towel If I recall Humor is the heart of a senryu, and this heart is hearty in its dimensions. I don't necessary think a poem has to rhyme in order qualify for its power, Elliot did well for himself, and I am a massive Irving Layton fan. Still its nice to have a discipline of form. Lovely Work sir, style and substance in an attractive little package.

Quality poems are not relished these days! Something which doesn't have either rhyme or reason is the accepted pattern now! It is a sad state of affairs. A poem should be either musical or should have depth of thought! Beautifully and concisely put!

Your observation is wonderful....neither fish nor fowl / it's neither rhyme nor reason. Beautiful poem in brief. Thanks for sharing.

A verse for this age, very well said. Yet, the Japanese short poems we read are the English translations and not the original. So, rhyme may be, but not sure about reason. A poem is a beautiful thought beautifully presented in a tellingly lovely verse form.
