My Muse is as kind as ever. This is more to do with that kind ofINERTIA, which prevents us from doing ANYTHING at all. The day I wrote it, I had been feeling like that. <BR/><BR/>AS for as villanelle goes, I think the form suits where there is sense of drama. I turned it around for inertia.<BR/><BR/>Tom, thanks.

You really captured the process and journey of it. And the villanelle form is wonderful, especially for the way inertia goes back and forth.

The rhyme seemed strange to me in the beginning but then I started to stop looking at the structure and start looking at the poem. I think I got really stuck on the whole villanelle thing last week. This was a really moving poem and I have been in places in my life where I seemed to be moving quite a bit while just staring at a wall or something. This just made a lot of sense to me.Clockworkchrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09889793842709699969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13825130.post-69477717138589908992007-05-04T00:53:00.000+05:302007-05-04T00:53:00.000+05:30gautami,Even when we seem to be paralyzed and we c...gautami,<BR/>Even when we seem to be paralyzed and we can't find a focus to write about, we find a poetic way to say so. ;-)<BR/>Well done.
