I'll tell you what I hate 'bout meter:
it seems like everyone's a cheater
with magic 'postrophies like 'ere
and ne'er and where-the-bleeping e'er
it makes the iambs work. Well, hell
then I'll just make up language too
with lazy arr'gance like you've never
dreamed! Like a banker far behind
in Scrabble, I'll add th's like taxes.
It's effortless, 'cause poemeth after
poemeth just butchers nat'ral speech.
It's stucketh in my brain! Yes, I
can play that game.
Hello all! Can I get some feedback on the meter? I'm trying to use trochaic and Pyrrhic substitutions as well as both masculine and feminine endings. Thank you >
