It lacks emotion and metaphor, but that's just me, write it as you please.One more thing: Italian rhyming scheme > Shakespearean rhyming scheme Besides, I wouldn't be so thrilled about being a top gun if I were you:Just so you know, I don't wanna ride your tail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAHAHAHAHA.Well so far, mine is less clichéd than yours... 1. Tarantino is a twat and an awful director.2. Why would I waste two hours watching a homoerotic film about Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer?As Orwell said in his five rules1 "Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print."2 "Never use a long word where a short one will do."3 "If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out."4 "Never use the passive where you can use the active."5 "Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent."6 "Break any of these rules sooner than saying anything outright barbarous."

Tarantino is an awful director.2. Because you are a Top Gun! It suits you Couldn't care less for what Orwell says or thinks, poetry is about feelings, not rules.P.S.: Really have to get back to my studies P.S. 2: You really are jealous about it - you started an argument just because I said I spoke 4 languages Rmpr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No awful metaphors or similes to be found. Than why are you following the rules of the structure of sonnets? Seems hypocritical my Brazzer friend. Besides he says nothing about not having emotion in your writing, in fact he states the polar opposite. He advises writers to be concise and honest, how can you be honest when you are dicking around with long words, and tacky metaphors? Maybe it's different in your three other languages, but I can tell you that with English being honest, sincere and concise is the aim. This is the reason that writers like Orwell, Hemingway and Salinger are revered higher than those like Joyce, Faulkner and Melville. Joyce for instance is arguably the greatest author in English history. But do people like reading his books? No, they don't. They are awful things to read, far too complex and and obtuse to even attempt. I tried to read Ulysses by Joyce and barely made it past the first few pages.Tarantino is so derivative and arrogant that I can't even begin to express.Of course I'm jealous about it.
