A Plethora Of Poetry

Introduction

Michelle Liew introduced me to a new form of poetry in her story below

When I searched for Epulaeryu with a Google search, I found the site Shadow Poetry which gives a detailed description of the form and many others.

This is part of the description on the site, although I think the form could be used for any subject as Michelle did with hers.

The Epulaeryu poem is all about delicious food. It consists of seven lines with thirty-three (33) syllables. The first line has seven (7) syllables, the second line five (5), the third line seven (7), the fourth line five (5), the fifth line five (5), the sixth line three (3), and the seventh line has only one (1) syllable which ends with an exclamation mark.

This is a short piece, just a thank you to Michelle and a shout-out to her and the Shadow Poetry site. Please check out her poem and leave a comment to let her know you have been.

Although I can produce poems and stories quickly I do put a lot of work into them, actually devising processes to put formally structured poems together together.

These are two that contain basic videos for creating a Villanelle and a Pantoum:

Conclusion

Thank you for reading and I hope that I have given you some ideas for your forthcoming poetry.

The music is "Word Up" by Cameo. I don't know if it's my set up but the production on the is viciously razor-sharp.
