Hallo m'leute!

As some of you may or may not know I have a bit of a thing for poetry I did my 2nd year Creative Writing module on poetry and wrote quite a bit of my own, some of which you can view on my Deviant Art. Any way, the reason I'm telling you about my love of poetry is that today I watched the film 'A Haunting In Conneticut' which has a scene where a character recites a poem which has since become my new favourite poem
The poem is called 'Two Dead Boys' and there are a few versions of the poem online with different wording, but my favourite is the short version said to be by poet Melvin Hergenroten. It goes as follows:

One bright morning
In the middle of the night.
Two dead boys
Got up to fight.
Back to back
They faced eachother,
Pulled their knives
And shot each other.
A deaf policeman
Heard the noise,
And came and killed
The two dead boys. 

 

I'm not quite sure why my writing has suddenly just changed colour and nothing I try will put it back to yellow like the rest, but whatever. As Iwas saying, I like Nonsense Poetry as it is the least serious and self-loving of the poetic forms and this one is just so cool playing with paradoxes. Maybe I'm jsut being geeky here, but I just really like it I think I might write some of my own verses based on the same idea. Maybe not about dead boys though On a side note, I quite liked the film too - the main charcter was hot and the film wasn't particularly gory or scary which is good 'cause I dont deal too well with either!

Must dash now, I'm just writing this as a break from plastering my walls with pictures of you know who! Love Love x x x
