Notes on poets creed

By Shanna McCoy

 

“one reads what one likes-yet one writes no what one would like to write, but what one is able to write

“I though I knew all about words, all about language of course, I didn’t understand them

-not living in the present

“Language wasn’t just a way of saying things, language could also be a music and a passion.

There are many monets in a someones life but the one moment that sticks out is when a man knows who he is, when he sees himself face to face

            A reader, no trouble no anxiety he is merely out for happiness

            Never ending, going on forever

            Something to the imagination in the framework of the book (for a great book)

 

He believes in Don Quixote’s Character and the friendship between Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.

 

In poetry, feeling is enough,

 Metaphor essential element of literature

 

Being a writer means being true to your imagination

            (something deeper)

Eternity in beauty-despite accidents and failures

 

“When I write, I do not think of the reader and I do not think of myself, but I think of what I am trying to convey and I do my best not to spoil it,

            Allusion: Symbols

            Convey what the dream is

            Believe in things even if they let you down afterwards

This creed useful to me, but hardly to others

 

Borges

Literary titan

Manifesto-Creed

There should be as many creeds as there are poets

            Come up with your own creed

Memories

            In ones life your life can become who they are in an instant

Nightingale

            Present

Poetry

            Creating a type of musi

A system of art and how they all (Art forms) work together see a sound, smell what we feel

Synesthesia

 

Powerful ideas that were created a long time ago, can be reused today  : )
