More poetry

Another poetry prompt. *Whimper*  All my attempts to make poetry make sense, reading out loud, rearranging the text into prose, making the writing very very big; they're just not working. with odd examples I just can't comprehend the fucking things. And now I have 12 hours to write a fic from one. 12 hours.

Sodding, sodding, sodding hell. I'm used to feeling uneducated in both Holmes and Tolkien fandoms, but I rarely feel this bloody stupid. *headdesk*

Yes, but not a very good one. And in Tolkien and Holmes the balance seems to be people who either have or will have at least one PhD. And are very intelligent and literate. I am none of these things.

My PhD is still at risk, last time I checked.

(a) You'll get it. (b) Published Author/Poet trumps pretty much everything.

Only if you're famous (I'm definitely not). Also, poetry terrifies people *wry grin*

Poetry terrifies me. I'm definitely not people. And I did love that fairytale one.

BTW did the email about Emperor get through?

It did. I can't justify spending money on theatre tickets at this point, unfortunately!

(Or on fountain pens, much though I am fantasizing about them on Twitter at the moment :-P)
