A Poem by bella
"

It's basically about developing my own style of poetry

"

Many years ago I kissed Robert Frost, and remained infatuated for many years after

But ultimately decided I was too young to know why I cared so much about him

Then I went through a rebellious phase and had an affair with Poe but he was too drunk to remember and quite frankly I’m glad, what a mess that was.

And of course I slept with Nico, William, Walt and even Amanda just trying to find myself.

Just trying to feel something real, feel the little piece of me I know is missing.

And currently I’m falling in the love myself

I love the way my words roll off my tongue and how they rub me all the right ways

I think I’m the one

Hopefully I believe that till the very end

I find this extremely beautiful as it depicts a type of journey you've experienced throughout your way of finding solace in words, as well as establishing your own style

I like the play on words and creative references to great poets of the world. But with passion, dedication, more and more practice you, too, can be a great poet of our time!

Well done!!!

This is one of the most brilliant things I've read in a few weeks & I've been reading alot. I love this. I can't even put my finger on why I love it so much. The message is very witty & tongue-in-cheek, but what I love is the attitude. Just a touch of playful sarcasm like you're subtly jabbing yourself for being such a follower. Your honesty & self-appraisal are refreshing & instructive to other poets starting out & finding their voices. This is memorable writing! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Now find Salinger, Hemingway and Donne. Us, who love to read find the many writers who can steal our mind for a time. A wonderful poem shared bella. I did like this one.

This work is both amusing and clever. Glad to hear you didn't sleep with Ezra Pound. A strange one there.
