Thread 24865375

I just discovered that rhymes can be anaphores (at the beggining), mesodiplosis (at the middle) and epistrophes (at the end).

WTF.

I can write verses being both anaphores, mesodiplosis and epistrophes.

What the fuck bros.

rhyming dictionaries exist too

It's called feminine and masculine rhyme.

what about metamorphosis

Neato, that's something I didn't know about. Thanks for sharing. (This is not sarcasm, it is genuine)

i never bothered reading or learning about poetry until recently but its actually a really interesting dimension to write within.
super interesting how writing in a different meter like trochaic vs iambic can entirely change the personality and direction of a sentence and character. its also pretty fun writing super crass and inane shit in meter as an exercise.

Not quite. Allow me to clear things up.
>masculine rhyme is an epistroph rhyme with the emphasis being on the last
Your mother used to lick
white chocolate off my dick
>feminine ryhme schemes has the emphasis on second to last with an unemphasized last syllable, yet both syllables rhyme
navy boys train crouching and ducking
no slouching, straight standing, and queer fucking
>OP talks about anaphores which is usually defined as either the repetition of the first words...
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
>...or a rhyme put in the beginning of a line
Tarts with plums is what you ate
Farts like hums is what you get

I love how poets have to make up their own fantasy terminology in a desperate effort to make you believe their shit is high art and not just meaningless, childish gobbledygook

>>24867325
The terminology is ancient Greek, you troglodyte.

>There are retards on /lit/ that pretend to be deep and yet don't know rethoric

>>24867338
How and why would long-dead poets be different from currently living poets?

out of all the shit ass replies on /lit/ mine is the one that gets deleted, amazing

I got to stop what I'm doing
I got to diss them
Give them some constructive criticism

Moving the goalpost again? It's not fantasy bullshit. The terms are Greek and always matter-of-factly on the nose. ἀναφορά, "carrying back", because you repeat a part and refer to it again. A good poem indeed is a form of high art of literature and rhetoric with meaning, and that meaning is transported via style and substance.
