Twisted Minds Poem by Irene C S ClarkHogg

Twisted Minds

Rating: 5.0


Do poets really have twisted minds
For they don’t view the world as others do?
It is painted with a much richer pallet
Using words of a varied hue.
Sweet music ripples through every line
Heartbeats created within the mind
To dance and twist a rainbow soul
Of a very different kind.

Choice of words...actually....No, I don't think poets have 'twisted' minds denotatively speaking. They are differernt souls....positive in many aspects...as you mentioned. Eccentric, may be, but twisted? No. Cheers. Subroto

You know what ma'am.. this is true, world thinks like that.. Now you see.. William Shakespeare, wrote poems for his patron Henry Riosthy.. He adored the male beauty....... he immortalized the person.. Do you know what my friends think.. they think Shakespeare is a gay person... Now he admired female beauty.. world admire his rich imagination, yet as a person people consider him as a odd person.. If you study, the back ground stories of poets you will feel like that.. Sylvia Plath for instance killed herself at the age of 31.... she looks at the world in a rather stranger way.. I study her character and.. I justify her decision, I mean may be not a good thing to justify suicide.. sometimes it is the poets, people with imagination who think about all those stuff.. and in return the society, ridicule, criticize and say all sorts of things.. this is good, you said it well ..
