Wiles of a Woman

by PS   Dec 3, 2008


Wiles of a woman, unjust
mistook for witchcraft, rather than might
made into a villian just out of spite
wished for her to rot and rust

lying on the ground, bound by lust
persecuted for the love of tonight
wiles of a woman, unjust
mistook for witchcraft, rather than might

dismisser of rules, unwilling to adjust
flouter of mores, will bare her bust
hidden underneath are oceans of fright
no one available to truth entrust
wiles of a woman, unjust

    I liked this poem. I was different and the wording was great. I gave it a 5/5.

    This is a really good poem. I like the way you worded it and portrayed the meaning/emotion. I would have to say, which is something I tell many people. You should use periods or commas at the end of some of the sentences. You did a great job of breaking up the actual lines, but not the stanza itself. Commas/Periods/Semi-colons/Colons, all of the punctuation HELPS a poem. Of course it coud very well hurt it, but it has everything to do with the flow. Therefore I suggest reading over the poem, while taking into consideration that punctuation marks means a TINY break in reading (like a syllable in the line). Then add the punctuation where you believe it is needed.

    I will say though, the fact that it isn't at the end of the stanzas, breaking them up isn't bad at all. You have a great poem here. I just believe that with a little punctuation it will give it that oomph of perfect flow. Which it's just about there already.
