does my poetry suck, /lit/?

...

Heat waves allure the horizon of clay
Of the road as I
Recline in a leather seat in an American diner
Eroding time
Drifting along from
Place to place across the highways
The deserts and cities
The heat of the tarmac dull
As the sunset envelops the day
And I fall asleep to the delicate breeze
Of welcoming night
And I,
I may awake
In whatever and whoever’s place
And continue to be free

>as I
>and I
nope with the force of a thousand suns

Yes. Irrevocably. Burn everything you have and start over after gaining an appreciation and understanding of the art.

good to learn

I don't understand why you go to such lengths to cut each line up if you aren't in any sort of meter or rhyme.

It makes the whole thing difficult to read

to be uncomfortable? no, that's just what it COULD be

Something wrong with the third line...too many syllables?

>> No.1882570

you're probly like 14. so it's alright for your age, i guess.

>> No.1882588

It's pretty good. Tighten it up a little. Remove the "I" stuff - I know it feels like you're adding a personal perspective to the poem, but I think it would be more effective without this. I liked it, though.

I don't get it. You wrote a poem about being hot?
