A
word
inexplicibly forbidden in my childhood (see
pancake).
"The proper term is 'verse'," instructed my late mother.
Thing is, I write the stuff all the time. Nobody
would call it "art" nor me a "poet." And I don't call it "work."
So what I write does not qualify as poetry. Examples abound, including
Paranormal
Limericks, a series inspired by dyskeptia.
