I made my few short attempts at some word plays in english recently. I am fond of french poetry - I am a HUGE fan of "Charles Baudelaire" to name one major poet - major as in : I never have seen style so close to perfection in writing - in any language. In Baudelaire's work, the sound of each syllabus is echoing the whole poem, there are 0 misplaced constructs, guy goes beyond perfection in evocation. I happen to know few of his poems by heart for having read them over and over ("Mon enfant, ma soeur, songe à la douceur, d'aller là bas vivre ensemble. Aimer à loisir, aimer et mourir, au pays qui te ressemble..") "L'invitation au voyage" - "The invitation to (sensual, sexual, and metaphysic) voyage" - just found a couple of viable english translations : http://fleursdumal.org/poem/148 (Side note : use it on women at your own risks, you'd end up with your clothes torn apart on spot). I love surrealist poetry as well (Andre Breton) - exquisite corpses deluxe, to illustrate the concept. I have written very popular short novels back in high school - I had an excellent sense of rythm in narration, and my novels, starting as mandatory "tests", would get passed on from students to students. One especially : the story of a paint artist who would trade his soul to the devil for the gift of life to his art - a gift he lost control of to a very dangerous extent. ...My 2 cents : please share some more, it is more than welcome and good.
