I am not worthy to be labeled a poet, because I am not really a poet. But only a trying hard mortal with the effrontery to create verses that might not be that sensible or simply put, useless. However I write poems because I love poems. With them, you can feel one's soul, you can reach the unreachable, and you can go to a fairyland and into dreams. This is the reason why I created Thoughts in Verses. This is my vehicle to never never land. This is where I put into words whispers that float and that need to be written.
I write poems when I feel distressed.
I write poems when a friend leaves with the thought that I will seldom see her.
I write poems when frightened.
I write poems when strangeness seems stranger than I ever imagined.
I write poems to reminisce.
I write poems when I am overwhelmed by love then wish that everything will always be fine with him.
I write poems when I feel ecstatically sexy. (Is there such a thing?)

About Carnal Thoughts
I write poems when 'inspired by a Korean TV series'. And I don't care if it is baduy.
I write poems, too, when I am contemplative after banging my head to the tricycle's entry. And that is because the silly passenger who got in first didnt want to move further inside.
Sorry, folks, this maybe the result of that agonizing thud.
I checked out your Thoughts in Verses ... very nice! You are indeed, a poet!
ReplyDeletethank you, very much, senor enrique... i think i still lack many things to be a poet.

I, too, crave to write a good poem. I have written a couple and not one bit is remarkable. And yet, I know I will write some more, whether or not I become good or not.

ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful to read your expressive poetry, Bing. Like many people who commented, I can't write poetry myself (I'm terrible at it) - but am delighted to appreciate the verses of those who can :)
