Okay, I know this topic has been inactive for ages, so I thought
maybe I would sort of bring it back? I had to write a sonnet for
my creative writing class, and it ended up being inspired by
Nezumi and the West Block... so I thought I would post it here
and see what you guys thought. I might post it on my blog later,
but I'm not sure about it ^^;
It's called "Artist and Illusion"
A graceful artist claims a spot lit stage
weaving tales of woe and wonder for all,
a thirst for beauty his words assuage,
giving brief respite for a life banal.
With simple motion and a soothing voice,
all cares swept away on a gentle breeze
allowing even the lost to rejoice;
a fleeting reprieve from their ill at ease.
But someday this song will come to it’s end;
the bright light will dim, the colors will fade
and what hope is left when we can’t pretend?
If only from the truth we had not strayed.
With this song, a passing peace may be known;
petals of spring painted with words alone.

@this-is-our-truth DUDE THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR
WHEN I STARTED THIS THREAD AND THAT POEM IS THE BOMB
Thanks for sharing!!
Sonnets are so hard to write, it just kills me ;A;
I've been trying to write a certain sonnet for over six months
now, and it still won't come. I can't wait for the day when it's
completed omg
Gog I can't stop re-reading your poem
*super jealous* XD
The last stanza and the ending couplet really hit hard...

Ohhh, this is beautiful! o,o
(And it's so great when you can do something for school that has
something to do with No. 6 ^^)

@Vox: Thanks! ^///^ I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I was super
nervous about posting it ^^;
Sonnets are really hard, but I really love writing them for some
reason... I might write another one at some point soon. I wish
you the best of luck on yours!!
@Ahiku: Thanks so much! ^^
(It is fantastic to be able to do that... and my creative
writing teacher is letting me write the No. 6 fanfic that I've
been wanting to write as my project, so you guys will be seeing
that soon too!)

Cool *-* You're teacher is great! XD I'm looking forward to
reading it.
I envy you quite a bit. :3 We never had creative writing in
school. Or...let's say it was pretty rare. I remember 2-3 times
we were allowed to write a short story. Always just analyses and
interpretations. x.x

@Ahiku: I really do like my teacher! I've never had someone like
her.
I never had a class like this when I was in high school, but the
one I'm in is a class at my college especially for creative
writing. We have a department of classes for poetry and fiction
writing... it's actually one of the reasons I chose this school
^^

Ah... I feel awkward commenting on this post twice in a row, but
here goes!
I'm not sure how many of you have read the sonnet I posted on
here earlier (probably a good number of you), but I kind of
wanted to write another No. 6 inspired poem... the only problem
is that I can't really think of another one to write. So I
thought maybe I could ask you guys for inspiration/requests? I
could do another sonnet, or something else if you would like.
So...um, please?

[s]I should not be online right now bye[/s]
Here are things that I can think of that might help inspire my
poetry. I don't know if they'll help you, but maybe!
1. pick a motif in the story and see what new things you can get
out of it. make an image into a relationship symbol. Like, the
mice, the superfibre scarf, shion's hair, the sky (they mention
that a lot), the forest (there's a quote about how nezumi's like
a forest, and the further in you go the more mysterious he
gets), the cherry cake, the thunderstorm, the wall, the wind, a
colour like grey or red, etc.
2. try and re-create a mood in a verse. what do you think their
peaceful evenings are like, their hectic days?
3. just listen to shit tonnes of music
4. imagine how the story would have been different if one small
choice had or hadn't been made, or if one small coincidence
occurred. how would the characters feel about it? what would or
wouldn't change between them? (idk i just really like the
thought of other possibilities and different timelines and
things)
5. alternatively, what would be constant across
universes/timelines no matter what??
I guess it's just a matter of zeroing in on one motif or topic
or mood or moment that interests you.
Yeah... that's all the advice I got. Sorry. ^^;;

Hmmm... I'd like to read a poem that describes Eve's beauty. :3
Or maybe a poem about nature when Nezumi is wandering.
