Another tour de force. I like the little embedded rhymes mid-line.

Having done over 200 random twitter poems, figured this would be a good place to show my older stuff.

 Im just curious hw can u write such excellent poem with usage words .Do select the words first the theme on which ur going to write?

I was thinking abt helen of troy when i was reading .

Regars,

PS:im looking frward for more of ur wkrs.

I wait until all words are submitted, and then most of the time I start writing lines and including words, a theme will form as I write, or somethings I can see a theme with the words.  Others I have something in my head and bend the words to fit what I was already thinking about writing, but that is less frequent.

Follow me on twitter.com/dragonblogger and send me a word for today's poem or any weekday poem, love to have more players.

There's a tv program, can't remember its name, where a team of young actors/commedians create impromtu plays from ideas called out by the audience.

Some theater groups use this technique to improve their ability to act.

I think it is a wonderful exercise to keep your poetic skills fresh and also stretch your imagination and creative use of words. It's almost like watching a magician do a magic trick, except with words in a verse in this case.

It was called "Whose Line is it Anyway", and yep, I akin my ability to create impromptu poems like a test of my skills as a writer.  Though I have no formal writing courses, training and don't really know poetry, I couldn't tell you what a good poem is vs a bad poem, don't know construct other than very basic "acrostic...etc".  I am very much just a freeform poet, some are rhyming.

Just keep doing it...any formal study might block you....
