Entry 1141 — A Final Version?
Bad things have been happening with my house, so I thought I’d take the next few days off to recover. After a simple nap this afternoon, though, I suddenly had an urge to finish the private eye poem I was working on a week or more ago. Here’s the result:
I give it a B (rating it against my poems only). I hope others will find it interesting. What’s most interesting to me about it right now is how much it seems to me it could be improved, and/or some of its details employed more effectively in better poems. I don’t want t fool with it anymore, though: I don’t think I have enough of a handle on it to know for sure what I have right in it, what not-so-right. (I don’t think anything in it is flat-out wrong.)
