Description "Magical Muse Literature Contest" entry
  • news link
  • hosted by =Scarlettletters

    ------------------------------------------
    1
    a TEA(r)drop
    on blank paper
    i started drawing

    2
    wor(l)ds bound
    in paper
    left me sketchless
    ------------------------------------------

    First I hoped it would turn out to be more explicit and descriptive and my magical muse would take some specific form, but it remains abstract. So be it.

    It's in visual poetry category because I think it's more apropriate even if the poems are (a bit unusual) haiku. I admit I may have put more effort into painting.

    Watercolor on KOH-I-NOR paper. Written and painted by me *licrydis

    I have a feeling there is something wrong with colors, maybe I will change the image later...
    It's much better now.

    Thank you. Im haiku if you use only the most necessary words, they should speak also inbetween the words and lines to tell the whole story. So yeah, that was the goal exactly, thank you for noticing that

    lol, I like your one-word-per-line style
    make it a poem, anything can be a haiku, you just need to put away everything that is not important. keep it simple and maybe the images will emerge in mind on their own.
    (I am just pulling this out of my finger, I don't think too much about my 'oems'.)

    licrydis In reply to MeNTaLPSyCHo [2009-07-05 14:37:32 +0000 UTC]

    aj som nad tym uvazovala, ale prislo mi, ze 2 slabiky je fakt malo. ale mozno mas pravdu...

    MeNTaLPSyCHo In reply to licrydis [2009-07-05 15:17:12 +0000 UTC]

    no napisal som to, pretoze ukazanie nejakej casovej linie pri opisovani isteho obrazu/sceny, ktory/u by sme mali vnimat nezavisle do casu, sa mi zda zbytocne, skor hodne na experimentovanie s tým, co haiku dokaze obsiahnut

    z dvoch slabik sa daju urobitit lahko tri a obsiahnut tak vacsi priestor, napr spojovnikom: - i draw . To mi tam ide aj funkcne
