    Cinema is Poetry

    Cinema is Poetry

    I could project you through a movie reel
    soul flayed onto the screen
    picture - perfect
    with a core blinding to those that care to watch
    a dim theater with a smoky aroma...
    Mislead - Through Fog
    the audience all lost in the cancer that eats the screen
    a melody plays deaf to most.
    Screeching - Bliss
    on the killers ninth life,
    we start to submit ourselves
    Flung - Guilt
    and without a whisper of doubt
    the captions play in transitions
    Backwards - Out of order

    this gambit we deal on the table
    breathes life into a desert lisle...
    Cinema then captures those senses
    and holds them in awe
    for all to blend and mix into uncertainty
    bordering with excitement as the climax hits
    does it leave the aftertaste,
    that makes you want to experience.
    makes you want to bleed onto the white sand
    and grow something on that isle...
    or do you strike up a new conversation
    already discontent with the viewing...
    Cinema is... Poetry.

    Well from this i can deffo tell you get caught up in the experience of the cinema. But it's so introverted i struggle to understand some of the concepts you're looking to convey. It's a disjointed piece, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but to me this has no saving grace to make it anything other than a decent piece to get what yer feeling out onto the page rather than a well constructed poem that has a coherence to it.

    I can see what you're trying to do, but i'd reel it in a bit and not be too abstract and all over the place.

    Feed me!


    This was really nice in the emotional catagory like write said. And in the end, I felt you did a very nice job on the overall content of the writing. At first, I was liked.. 'alright, this is cool.' but then I reached the second stanza and was like 'he went from cool to near perfection'. Loved this shit man, there was no real rhymescheme like I am used to using. But your wording was really well followed and carried a poetic/novelic flow with it. The concept was really nice, and I felt you sprung some nice emotion in here as well.. keep writing.

    Favorite lines..

    That's fair enough. But i don't think the problem with the piece is it's 'style' but it's 'standard'. It's okay being abstract as long as there is a central flow and the sentences form correctly. And the abstractions are accessible.

    Re: Cinema is Poetry

    ^ they seem accessible enough to me...

    im relating cinema to a metaphor... it's not rocket science.

    i'm sure it can be difficult to wrap ur head around some of the concepts... but the general feel is there in my opinion...

    but everyone is entitled to there own... thanks for the input. ...

    i'm trying to get more concrete in my style.
