Poetry and Prose

I've always found it easier to structure my creative writing as poetry, rather than prose. This is not to say I can't write short stories, but I don't think I've ever written one simply for my own amusement. On the other hand I've written countless poems, some of them short and ridiculous like the one I've posted, others long and serious. I rather wish I had the patience to sit down and craft a story so large it needs a book or even a series to contain it. Maybe sometime I'll get around to it, but that would require some manner of perseverance coupled with a relatively steady source of creativity and inspiration, which at this point seems rather unlikely. Still, if I ever get the hankering or a really good idea, I'll keep you posted. I'll probably even put up samples for input from my three or four viewers. How generous, right?
