If painted women are whores and drawn women weary If women cut from stone are frigid and porcelain ones fragile Perhaps I shall not let another render me at all.
This is stellar. One thought. The capitalization seems weird to me. It seems to be a happy medium between periods and one long sentence, but it seems strange to me to separate the thoughts like that.
Let's just go ahead and say it: We Are Not AVerse is an online poetry collective. Now that the pretentious part is over, here's the meat.
We are a handful of young writers - some poets, some prosers - who had the good fortune of convening in one city and sharing each other's company for a few glorious years. We are now dispersed, but hope to use this blog (collective!) to share our work with one another and maintain some part of that communal spirit (of collective responsibility to supporting each other as artists).
Each respective work, obviously, is the property of its writer. So read and enjoy, but be kind and ask if you'd like to use anything you read.
Lastly, if you are visiting, please feel free to comment and participate in our discussions on art, life, fast food, and anything else. Try to keep it constructive, but really: we want your feedback!
Questions, comments, or feedback that doesn't belong on the public web? That's ok! Contact Dinah Finkelstein or Tim DeMay, we are very nice.

ReplyDeleteOo, disagree. The capitalization serves the finality of the period at the end.
