writing 101
When I began writing poetry years ago a friend of mine told me to remove the “and”, “but”, “because” and “then’s” from my poetry. It works. However I then wrote him a poem something like this just because.
and because
he said
but wait
it works
i said
but because then
he’s right
I will never admit it
because then what?
and but then….
I would be wrong
