Critique 5

combined poetry is really cool, like phantoms in pimp suits and scooby dooby doo.

What is this difference we draw between exercise,
and critique; exercising is a form of critique.
critique is a form of exercising practice.
Practice is exercise, thats how the game is played.

Playing around with exercises is a form of critique.
Watching the form and function is a good way to practice.
If you practice your critiques and exercises enough, good.
good critiques come when you exercise good practice in them.

Stop, please don't repeat what you were just going on about.
We're talking about practice, critique and exercise.
Not a game, were talking about practice but really repetition.
Allen Iverson knows best about practice, or does he?

If you don't practice or exercise, can you really be an answer?
to the game, like Allen I. I don't know but he was just talking about practice.
It's kind of like playoffs too, if you don't practice repetition,
Playoffs? Playoffs? you talkin' bout playoffs? PLAYOFFS!!??

Critique 3

William Carlos Williams, or C-Dub as I call him has a cool style that many people can identify with.
I don't really care for it as much as I used to, but I have been force fed peaches and red wheelbarrows for too long now. I enjoy the imagery of his writing and the free association of words and format that he utilizes. For me personally though, I am a big fan of radical poetry and hybrid poetry. So after seeing so much of Williams work over and over through my classes, I am no longer dazzled by his work like I used to be. I wish I could go back... back when wheelbarrows were cool. I use to love dem' wheelbarrows.

Exercise 4

Elegy to hat guy

It seems as if its been a long time-- hat guy.
so many people seemed not to know you well,
I remember you. Your hands, your drugs.

Hat guy, where did you go.
How did you get there, and who were you with.
Do you remember when we would play guitar hat guy?
You were gay for John Mayer, but that's ok hat guy.

I think you really should stop fighting now, hat guy.
You have smeared chocolate cake on the door.
Hat guy clean your room!
It smells like dick.

Do you remember when you thought you were a penguin?
Hat guy, why did you think you were a penguin.
It's okay hat guy I understand your struggle.
You can be a penguin now, if that's what you want.
Critique 4

I am a big fan of poetry, I like reading it. I like to write it, and enjoy learning about it.
One thing I didn't like about elegy writing was the disconnection I felt in some of the poetry.
Elegies are by no means lacking emotion or passion, distress whichever feeling they have, these elements are certainly there. I feel as if there is a difference of aim from an elegy as compared to a mournful poem of lonesomeness. I don't know exactly what that tiny change is, but I am going to find out.
