I have purchased a number of books on poetry writing prior to getting this book. None assisted me as much as this book does. The others focused to such an extent on the rules of what made poetry and the names of certain styles which must contain a set amount of lines and the rhyming line must be alternating or following or whatever to a formal and never varying pattern. frankly those rules threw me off course, I was just interested in having a go at writing rhyming verse and not wanting to be concerned as to how many lines I was allowed or not allowed to write.Enter this book. It is about rhyme and the natural sounding word flow, the type of poor person's poetry called Rap. Well, I could relate to it because that is what poetry is to me! words connected together! telling a story that have a flow and rhythm! a rhyme! with less emphasis in the name of the style and rules as to how many lines I'm allowed to use this becomes a useful and non-intimidating guide to writing in rhyme and flow.
