How Gracefully You Lie...

Thu Aug 14, 2003, 5:49 AM
God. I swear everywhere I go I feel the need to mention that my work posted here isn't in final form, I keep the final drafts private as I do submit them. And, to say that the stuff I write isn't real. It just isn't me, it comes from me and is shaded by my thoughts but I don't write autobiographical in the literal sense.

Glad I got that out kiss,


XX

I think I'm a comment whore.
Right, so, coherence.

I'd considered leaving the 'he thinks's alone, but didn't want to. I'd just written a poem with similar lines in the first stanza and wanted something less repetitive, more natural. It didn't work wel since I still see this poem in sections, but the bodies of the stanzas seem to stand so well that their poor introductions didn't undo them terribly.

As for the listening, the poem's about a captain who, in an unfounded anecdote, hangs a member of his crew that tells him the ship is going in the wrong direction (hence the swinging in stanza two), but I left the final lines purposely vague. It was more that the captain wasn't in a position where he could listen. The strict Naval regulations at the time would have in some ways (had the anecdote not been apocryphal) forced the captain to hang the sailor even if personally he'd been willing to listen. So the final lines of the poem kinda mean that slavation doesn't come from outside sources, but inside ones, on a more universal level, to get righ to the point.

Thanks for reading and commenting.
