[stylist] Poetic Forms

[Jackie Williams]

Jim, Funny, clever, but I don't think it would make it as a song! Seriously,
you have a good start on a hit song by using poetry.  The lyrics in the
movie about Henry Higgins and Audrey Hepburn, and all in the cast are
terrific, rhymed, and truly make the story.

Hi Jackie,
I want to try some of the forms. 

When I compose music, I like to have a form, because if I have no form, I
freeze up because I am fearful of having so many choices. Having a form
gives me a comfort level. I like short poetry forms, like Haiku, for
example. Here is one I was revising

Ten, twenty, thirty,
Forty, fifty sixty bones
Picked clean by buzzards.

Jim
