My view on poetry is a little mixed, and to analyse it would be very difficult to say the least. However I do think that poetry is something that comes from within a persons inner mind wanderings; that can be something that maybe someone has seen or encountered, or something that maybe someone has strong views on, to which they like to express in a way that can be viewed and enjoyed by someone else, or they may use it as a way of getting something accross to people. Alot of people have views on all types of things, and sometimes people tend not to want to bring such views up, maybe from fear of being shunned or laughed at, or even hated really badly; whereas by use of poetry it is a good way of expressing soemthing that more people will read remember and not be too affended. ...well maybe!

Here is another one of my poems, I don't know what inspired me to write this one, but here it anyway!

A New Leaf

Wobble wobble goes Mrs Bobble
up and down she walks on the cobble
so drunk is she she can barely see
as she thrusts her hips forward and laughs with glee

Her noes is red and she feels like her bed
sniff some more as shes ready to score
£40 a time she swigs some more wine
throws her head back and laughs like a cheshire cat

As she waits a car comes near
she hitches up her dress and shows off her rear
the car then stops and a man winds down his window
He asks for a price and off they go

They go off Into the night
She suddenly starts to feel uptight
It was somthing he had said
That she couldnt get out of her head
no more she would walk the streets at night
what was she doing with her life

she returns his money and tells him thanks
as she runs back home and waters the plants
She picks up the paper to look for a job
her head feels heavy and starts to bob
backwards and forwards and from side to side
the gap between reality seemed so wide

In the morning she rose with the paper in her lap
she jumped right up and began to clap
clap with joy and clap with elation
that she had given up the game and took vacation
vacation from what had become her vice
The relief that she felt was really nice

As she browsed through the now crumpled paper
she mangaed to see a vacancy for a machine operator
her interview got her the job as expected
she now earns an honest living and feels really respected

An interesting poem. I particularly like the opening verse.

There are some catchy lines in the verse, but I believe this category is intended more for analysing poetry rather than writing it, so don't feel I can justify more than an H. Duncan
