just 'cause

hey hey,
When your writting a POEM never use the word 'cause always use because its more poetry then.

A short tip and I'm not sure that I agree. Generally because is much better but when there are too many syllables, shortening because isn't always such a bad idea.

I'm not sure I agree. With a few possible exceptions, I don't think there are any words that should never, ever be used in poetry.

I think saying "'cause" can lend a more colloquial, conversational tone to the poem. It could be more of a statement, give the narrator more of a voice. It all depends on how, when, and why you use it. (This is true of any word in poetry.)

It's like Shakespeare and other people would say, "o'er" and "wak'd" to make it flow better. Too many syllables makes it clunky, like.

It all depends on what you mean. No word should be ruled out just because it doesn't "sound poetic" because all words are useful at one point or another. Rather, like Meep said, it depends on what style you've been writing in. Sometimes 'cause will work, and sometime because will be better.
