Hi all, Just a quick question regarding a poetry piece I'm writing. I am new at this type of writing, so I am unsure of the rules, although I presume there are few. Would it be okay for me to do something like this? Hello, how are you? I am fine. So how was your holiday? Not too bad, I suppose. This is obviously a poor example, and it's nothing to do with my actual poem. But is it okay for me continue a sentence into another verse? Thanks in advance.
Technically there are no rules to expressing yourself and poetry. I think it is an interesting idea, especially if the next verse can carry on a separate thought or image with that one sentence as a bridging method. If done well it can work in your favour I don't think that specific example works, but that's only my two cents.
i agree the example doesn't work, but it can be done effectively by a good poet, if there's a good reason for doing so...
