Versus verses
I haven't written much poetry in a long while. I used to write it constantly, but that seems to be the province of the angsting youth. There is something about poetic expression that lends itself to the exposition or detailing of particularly painful feelings when you're young. Or perhaps it is simply some small dream in the backs of our minds that tells us we'll create the perfect lyric, it will become a song everyone will love, and wish they'd expressed just that thing, just that way. I've grown to prefer prose more, it comes more easily to me now.
