Hypocritic Lines: Poetry Lines That Speak From Both Sides Of The Mouth
« on: August 09, 2007, 07:04 PM »

Poetry is not unlike a painting, sometimes people see more than the author has in mind.
As a poet, I sought after themes in my early writings, later on it progressed to more complex weaving of images using words that have some form of ambiguity and vagueness. Nothing absolutely defined.
Have you ever had a line float into your head and you felt you could use it more powerfully? ever created a powerful rhyme but can't seem to find flesh immediately for it's skeletal form?

With one click
They complete the trick!

I absolutely don't know what this line mean yet I am the inspirator/creator. I believe it will reveal itself at a future date.

I can see a connection there.

Here's another one:
"Of no fixed address
Always conscious of arrest"

Have a go at this.

Good. Applies mostly to those who think the law is a nuisance.

The imagery here is that of a crash. Does this have a "hypocritic" meaning?

Sounds like a man consumed by some passion. An inspiration to his people.Tragedy has befallen him and the people are grieving. They have lost an asset.

"Man firing" is more like it.
"Man on fire" portrays the picture of a man being consumed by passion or a strong emotion. Fire burns and releases a lot of energy.
Can't see how a deranged man on a shooting spree can be said to be "on fire".At least not from his gun.
