| Title: Art of the Craft Author: MedD Type: Poem Unfortunately most people have an abridged Thesaurus and pick out the first word they find, whether it fits or not, lol. Carefully crafted is good, and if more people took that kind of time, our reading experiences would be more rewarding. However, we all write for different reasons. Some want to refine their poetry, while others are more intent to just get their bare emotions onto the page. The latter are looking for different readers than the former. They want those who will identify with their pain and tell them they understand, or how “awesome” it is. It’s good that you understand the importance of writing, with finding the right work, constructing it in the roper line, and making the whole piece fit. It is clear you have the full, unabridged Thesaurus and understand the need to find the right word within it. Just make sure to choose a word you understand. Good readers can tell when a poet uses a word that he doesn’t understand. It painfully shows. The title fits well with the poem, which is short, but to the point, there is no need to belabour something that need not be. I see you are new to the site. I want to welcome you, and wish you a long stay on the site. This poem is a fine beginning to your stay here. ** Image ID #1900403 Unavailable **
