Anthology Reveries that I call Poetry | by T!el Fajardo

Buy me a Coffee~


Since I have some time now, I’ve put together this anthology for you all. If you think my effort is worth it and the quality is good, feel free to buy me a coffee,  there’s a button at the end too. Feel free to share this post and comment too.

I’ve also added a few extra poems that you might not have seen before.

How This Works

I’m testing an intricate idea here. This post is a single post with a collection of poems separated by pages (you might see page breaks depending on where you are reading this), with chapters and titles organized by the appropriate headings (no hyperlinks). Call it my postfolio; it’s a post analogous to a book.


Introduction

Welcome to a journey through language, writing, and the metatextual world of poetry. We’ll explore how language can be both a creative tool and a barrier. From the playful frustration of crumpled drafts to the powerful imagery of ink and blood, these verses challenge traditional forms, blending free verse with deliberate constraints.

The Power of Inspiration: Acting as a Catalyst and a Conduit through Writing

What positive emotion do you feel most often?

Inspiration.

How powerful is an emotion when you want others to feel it as deeply as you do?


Write to inspire… to write to inspire.

Musette

A subconcious slight paraphrase of ‘Small But Refined’ by Emily Romano


So, Shadow Poetry website provides two examples of the musette form, with different rhyme schemes for the middle section (second stanza): cdd and cdc; as far as I know cdc is the preferred form, mantaining “symmetry” (aba cdc efe).



Syllabication considered, do you pronounce inspire and expire with two or three syllables? As it would rhyme with hire and/or higher, are these homophones or is hire monossylabic?

Anyways, for the musette, is the syllable count considered up until the last stressed syllable of the verse or the actual last syllable? I’m assuming the latter, but I’m more familiar with the former.




A shout-out to Ryan Stone, who introduced me to the musette form through his beautiful poem:
