http://slow.writerscafe.org/HenryKrone The original writings of author Henry Krone en-us Copyright 2026 WritersCafe.org 1776010092 WritersCafe.org RSS Generator 15 This is an extra poem I wrote after finishing my anthology, trying to explore a new style of poetry of almost pure imagery and sensory information. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763449/ All the pieces inside of this poem have something to do with how the heart, in all its emotional saliences, controls people's every thought, even when we think we are in control. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763447/ This poem tells the story of a forlorn Swan that finally finds his true love but ends up discovering she is an illusion of his own desperate desires. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763446/ It starts this last section of the anthology with a somber tone and a tight structure to reflect the ghost aspect of the speaker, bound to be unseen by the people around him http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763445/ Well, I tried something a little bit different here. The questions mark my confusion as to how someone I once called a friend began ignoring me and decided to abandon me after she began dating another http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763444/ This poem marks a turning point for the speaker's emotions and the first piece of the third chapter. He reached a relative maximum high, and now everything will go downhill. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763443/ As the last poem of the third chapter, it establishes the war between love and hopelessness the speaker is caught between after his misadventures with Rose, Violet, and Obsidian Eye. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763442/ Violet is that friend that feels like she knows you deeply, even if you don't know each other for long. But for a person who feels invisible, how much of that new friendship is purely affectionate? http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763364/ The motif of flowers is key to the second chapter. We know Rose already, so Tulip is the next character the anthology introduces. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763363/ This poem is a love letter to the person the previous two pieces were written for. It establishes that I finally found a way to move on and ends the first chapter of the anthology. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763362/ This poem is written like a song, and it was my first try connecting these two different genres of art that many times intersect without us knowing. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763360/ This is the first poem of the second chapter, and it is supposed to show my new found love for this new person I met that made me feel amazing after a moment of despair. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763357/ This poem follows a modification of a sonnet structure and follows the story of the previous poem, showing a layer of dissonant emotions engulfing the speaker. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763356/ This is the epigraph of my poetry anthology called "The Heart's Betrayal". It is not a poem per se, but I love how it sounds and it also sets up the themes behind the collection. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/HenryKrone/2763352/
