poetry.


Question Posted Sunday September 30 2007, 1:48 pm

I would consider myself a good writer of short stories. But I can never come up with good poetry. I don't understand why. Perhaps it's because I can't really feel it...So I always end up writing about suicide. What would you write about if you were a poet? How does one come up with better writing topics? lol..

How cool, I love writing too :D Usually, I write love poems. I think it comes naturally, like I have to be in the mood to write really good poetry. If I were you, I would try to wait a little while until you have intense emotions, like really strong ones. Maybe that would help?
good luck :)

Write about anything and everything, but the best topics are always those that one can relate to. Think long and hard about exactly the mood you are in in this exact second right now, and then right it down. Listening to music helps, preferable music that has to do with how you are feeling. It will exaggerate a mood in your mind so that you can write something that relates to it. Write about stuff that frustrates you, topics that move you. Compose a story in verse. Brainstorm lists of adjectives, just anything that comes to mind. Lists of adjectives AND words and onomatopoeia just for fun. Write about stuff you observe as if you were drawing a picture in your brain. A dewdrop, a sunrise, the guy/girl you like, being bored by homework/a job, not understanding life. Don't think so much about what you are going to say and just write something, staying as honest as possible.
