What kind of poetry form am I?

[paragraphs]

I guess this kind, which is nice as I like sonnets.

But I really do like people--for the most part.

I am the sonnet, never quickly thrilled; Not prone to overstated gushing praise Nor yet to seething rants and anger, filled With overstretched opinions to rephrase; But on the other hand, not fond of fools, And thus, not fond of people, on the whole; And holding to the sound and useful rules, Not those that seek unjustified control. I'm balanced, measured, sensible (at least, I think I am, and usually I'm right); And when more ostentatious types have ceased, I'm still around, and doing, still, alright. In short, I'm calm and rational and stable - Or, well, I am, as much as I am able. What Poetry Form Are You?

Short, terse, unfriendly,
Yet sometimes quite emotive;
I am the Haiku.



That's what the test said! :-P

I liked the sonnet. They are nice in general but hard to get right.

I am a tanka (new word) with second choice sonnet. The description was kinda accurate. These tests can be fun.

I'm the sonnet, too.

Oh Cats, you are? That is somehow rather cool. LOL.

But then it says this: If you were not Terza Rima you would be a Sonnet. LOL! So, according to my first result I like people, and according to the second one I don't? Odd! :D

Tanka. That is a new one on me too. Hmm!

LOL well I don't know you as short, terse, or unfriendly. So.... :)

I am rather tall, but I like my words to be concise whenever possible.

I am very unfriendly when I am on the metro, but otherwise I am generally outgoing when I'm out in public, although not bubbly by any means. I'm an introvert, though, so I gather and horde alone time. And I despise stupid people. Which generally = anyone walking slowly in front of me, particularly if they cut me off. ;-) Hmm, maybe I am unfriendly....

Haha. I got Terza Rima and Blank Verse. :)
Since Terza Rima has already been posted, I'll post Blank verse here:

I rather like Blank Verse, haha. :)

Oh you are completely awesome, Leafy!!! :) This makes me smile!

Nothing related but it's all your fault. I've watched all 4 seasons of Doctor Who in a week. I need an icon!

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

LOL!!!! A friend made my default icon for me. :)

Well, I don't blame you for any of those things! LOL. I am pretty much the same. And having been on metros, tube, etc., everyone is going somewhere, and just want to get there.

I have alot of alone time. My commute every day is by car, so I can't get too distracted, but if I am not on phone with Nick then my mind is way far away. Thankfully lately the far-away has been focused on writing to come. :)

[paragraphs.livejournal.com]

LOL I do also. :)
