Journal 41: Poetry


Poems are different from other forms of writing because it is shorter and expressed in sentences . it can take very different forms and varies a lot. This can be expressed very broadly and leave readers to analyze what it means. Essays are straight out stating ideas and readers mostly understand the meaning fully unless of hard vocabulary, unfamiliarity of the language, or and gramical errors. Most poems are short and expressed very different to talking. It can help people better memorize if the meaning is not to abstract and also help if it rhymes. Poems can express thoughts that can better left the readers wondering, it cannot be described vividly so that the readers can imagine what the poem wishes to deliver.  The poems cannot achieve the easy understanding the essay offers, and somethims lacks words to describe them. The poem tends to cramp a lot of idea into one, making it fast reading and less time to enjoy the passage. Poems are use today as songs and some are written really nicely. Every line rymes and offers a lot of meaning. I find these poems very enjoyable, especially the onces that is made into songs and those that are insulting. The best example is the” you got pwned” rap.
