Narrative Poems

I thought I'd put some classification on the poems I wrote in April.

Today I'll list out the narrative poems, the ones that tell a story. I quite enjoyed writing these and it seems 11 of the 30 fell into this category.

Influences: Coleridge, Lewis Caroll, Poe and all the novels and myths I've read

You may notice that although some characters have gender, others are ambiguous. The picnicers in 2, the family in 11 and everyone in 4. I think this is easier to do in poetry than in prose. I'll leave it to you to paint them in or not as you wish.



Hope you enjoy
