NEPA Smiles by joseph1832(op): 5:52am On Apr 01, 2015

Mosquitoes stings
And music rings
Darkness speaks
And despair creeps
Bodies wriggle
And sweat mingle
Heat caresses
And rashes arises
People growl
And NEPA smiles!

Bodies wriggles
As sweat trickles.

Exactly, the 'and' should be replaced with 'as'

Poetic device guys... Remember a poet doesn't have to follow the basic rule of English language!.

Your poem sha is problematic

Did you wake up this morning and decided you want to be a troll today?.

Read more about poetry bro. It will enlighten you the next time you choose to drop a poem.

Calm down. If I wanted to troll you, we would be having drama.

We are brothers afterall. Didnt I dedicate my poem to you?

I understand what you are doing. It is called diction and using poetic license.

But then, the best poetry is usually grammatically correct.

I am just criticising. Bros, I am being real and not trying to insult you.

Is that so?. A good poem with flawless grammar without poetic device is nothing but nursery rhymes!.

Since you know about poetic license why attack my grammar?
