He is describing a striking vignette. Why? What about this place is special to him and how does it make him feel?(07-31-2013, 11:04 AM)milo Wrote: ok, this is a good start. Remember, that even a vignette isn't about a place, it is about a person, just like every good poem is. Vignettes are actually about the narrator that is viewing the place. Are there any particulars you would like to communicate about your narrator? Who is he? How does this place affect him? Who is his audience? What is his motivation is communicating with his audience?to be honest milo, i'm not sure, it's like i have this thing in my hand and want to put it on show....i suppose the audience is me, (or even god if there is one )how it affects me. i wish i could be more explicit. the truth is, i just wrote it and now i see i didn't do such a good job of writing it. correction, i thought i did an excellent job but, after reading lots of other peoples poetry see that this is what i thought great poetry looked like.
