A bare skeleton.
Just a babe in creation.
Slowly smothered with ribbons and scarves.
With unnecessary flourishes and marks.
Dot the 'i's and cross the "t's.
A tragedy in modesty.

A/N: Yep, this is my view on poetry. :D

Oh goodness. This is lovely. I can't say too much about it, cause they're isn't much there, but I think thats what really makes this piece. It exemplifies the 'modesty' even more so with just a few words =] The only part I was slightly confused on was the last two lines, it made me unsure of what the poem was about for a moment. But other than that, you have a really nice piece here =]

Amazing. Though brief, it says all it needs to say about what poetry is. BRAVO!
Reading is the sole means by which we slip,
involuntarily,
often helplessly,
into another's skin,
another's voice,
another's soul.

I really liked it! It was interesting, short and sweet! I'm not too sure what I can say about this because there are no flaws and not much there that I can talk about. The line before the last was a little confusing for a moment but after thinking about it your title and poem come together to create a meaning.
