Milo - Thanks, this really helps and I enjoyed your changes. Totally different meter to the one I had in mind. Do you think it would be helpful to attach audio links to recitals of our poems (notwithstanding that poems are for reading as much as for listening to)?
I have no education in poetry as I'm sure you can tell, so those names for metric styles are completely lost on me. Your demonstration, however, says it all.
okay i've had another crack at it. Achebe I haven't addressed some of the issues you raised like detailing of the story. I have focussed mainly on the meter and ridding of cliches. Keen to hear people's thoughts
