POETRY IS ART - Gamzee Makara - 03-13-2016
So in my college clash that i am slowly beginning to loathe, we are going over a massive expansive poetry course. Anyways, as tedious as it can be, it's gotten me to a point where I love a good poem~ No matter the weirdness or melancholic tone, poems have this weird serenity to them now.
I don't think any of that made a lick of sense, but you get the idea.
Anyways, It's kinda sparked an idea for a thread. Go do some digging folks, and find some cool poems that could describe, affiliate, or otherwise have similarities with your character(s). Published or nah, just find some cool poems that could link up with your character. If they're pretty short, you can...probably just post them here? Just make sure you cite it in some way. Always give credit where it is due. If you don't feel comfortable doing that, then just shoot us a link and whatnot. Multiple poems for a single character is totally okay!
Gamzee's Poems: http://www.poetrysoup.com/famous/poem/9822/forgotten_language < Forgotten Language by Shel Silverstein. Makes me think of a Musing Sober Gamzee.
http://hellopoetry.com/poem/1493790/hanged/ < Hanged by Bo Burnham. A final moment of clarity before Gamzee dies. ;D
Okay so these were kinda depressing. Might post some happy stoner poems later. But yeah! Go wild! It'd be cool to see what you guys come up with.
