- excerpt from Fig Tree, Autumn Equinox by Sylvie ( j.p. )

#poetrysupportnet #poetry corner #spacebuck #heroicandromache #steebucks #i had my first bout of inspiration and organic writing in a good long while #i'm still not 100% pleased with this #but it's something that feels right #which i haven't been able to say recently #so for that i am grateful to this poem #even if it's not a happy one #even if it feels tonally different from my usual work #poetics #fig tree autumn equinox #2019.09.24

- excerpt from after by sylvie ( j.p. ) | napowrimo 2019 #28

#poetrysupportnet #napowrimo #spilled ink #heroicandromache #spacebuck #poetics #napowrimo 2019 #2019.04.28 #i honestly gave up on titling this one #so apologies for the terrible title #a villanelle which was interestin g #as much as i tend to rely on repetition #i really am not a fan of actual refrains #especially in a short + constrained form #i feel like it puts too much of a limit on what i can say in a poem #but this was a worthwhile exercise anyway !!!#there is something to be said for refrains for sure #even if i'm not terribly good at using them

- excerpt from ghostly by sylvie ( j.p. ) | napowrimo 2019 #8

#poetrysupportnet #heroicandromache #steebucks #spacebuck #nathanielorion #poetics #napowrimo 2019 #2019.04.08 #aaaaaand we're back to freeform #and ghosts #which is a reasonably frequent topic i write about ???#this started out with a plan in my head #and proceeded to go in a completely different direction #i'm not displeased with it though #a little trite and familiar perhaps #but not bad

- journey by sylvie ( j.p. ) | napowrimo 2019 #11

#poetrysupportnet #heroicandromache #steebucks #spacebuck #nathanielorion #poetics #napowrimo 2019 #2019.04.11 #this was !! too short to try and excerpt #a traditional korean form called 'sijo'#it feels a little odd to write a korean form in english #but here we are #it's all about syllable counts & grouping #no rhyme limitations but length is short #and thematic restrictions exist #so it was !! a different type of exercise !#i'm honestly not sure if this is the final form #i've already edited it like three times since i first said 'done!'#idk how i feel about this yet we'll see where it goes

- yarrow by sylvie ( j.p. ) | napowrimo 2019 #26

#poetrysupportnet #napowrimo #spilled ink #heroicandromache #steebucks #poetics #napowrimo 2019 #2019.04.26 #another short form poem #not worth excerpting from 6 lines haha #sticking with one rhyme for most of the poem was hard #and i kind of cheated because i'm treating the same sound as different syllable counts #flower / power / tower as 2 syllable 'our' sounds #hour / devour as 1-syllable 'hour' sounds #which individually feels right to me #but juxtaposed next to each other here it looks and sounds odd #oh well !!! i tried !#and that's what counts !

- excerpt from xanadu by sylvie ( j.p. ) | napowrimo 2019 #25

#poetrysupportnet #heroicandromache #steebucks #spacebuck #nathanielorion #poetics #napowrimo 2019 #2019.04.25 #this is a form called a glosa !#you take four lines from another poem and make them your final lines #in a four-stanza poem #i've been thinking of doing one for a while #and the moment someone said xanadu i had a very vivid flashback to gr. 11 english class #where we discussed Kubla Khan #and thus this poem was born #shoutout to the person who gave me xanadu as a prompt

- excerpt from the gentle version by sylvie

#poetrysupportnet #spilled ink #heroicandromache #steebucks #spacebuck #poetics #i know this isn't much i'm sorry #i realized all over again that most places won't let me submit works i've published on tumblr #so i'm back to excerpts #and also working on my own chapbook #i'm sorry it's still not finished #but it will happen i promsie #f: there is a version of this story
