Dissimulation -

 
From now on, to keep the poetry board a wee bit tidier, please can you guys post any poetry, prose, art or literature related questions you may have in this thread.

I'm hoping that not only will this help keep the poetry board nice and clean, but it'll also stop other people's work from being bumped off the front page, too.

I would also be greatful if you guys could keep regular tabs on this thread, just in case there's some questions here that you may be able to help somebody else to answer.

Thanks everyone and keep writing.

equality, tolerance & logic

 
There is this poetic movement or term that I can't remember what it's called.

The term implies bad poetry in that the rhyme and rhythm are not so good to the ears.

Could someone help please?

Now is that salary pre or post tax?  

100% of Earth's population agrees with the following statement.

"Forces should be spending their time catching rapists and murders and not worry about piracy theft."

Sorry, but I don't know. Maybe a poetry organisation (like The Poetry Society) might be able to help.

I know a few. I dunno if it'll be of any help. Here goes...

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses
And all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again.
(I read somewhere that, although people think of Humpty as an egg, he was probably a cannon.)

Hey diddle diddle
The cat and the fiddle
The cow jumped over the moon
The little dog laughed, to see such sport
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

Baa baa black sheep
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir
Three bags full.

One for the master
And one for the dame
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.

Twinkle twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are.
(Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star, was written by someone called Jane Taylor.)

I know some songs we used to sing at school, when people used to clap hands together and sing. I don't know if they'll help, but I'll put some on if you like. Also, I sometimes buy Cadbury's Buttons (as a bribe for WLW) and they have nursery rhymes on them. I think. I haven't bought any for
a while.

scapegoat extraordinaire

 
These seem to be two useful sites:
for songs, rhymes & lullabyes
English nursery rhymes

Hope that helps.
