<span style="background: #FFF9EE; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">This poem the “Faux Pas”
is written in Pentameter style.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: #FFF9EE; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">The Pentameter is a
literary device that can be defined as that verse made up of five strong
metrical feet or beats. The Pentameter functions are to govern the individual
verses in the poem and to provide a structural form to a poem. The Pentameter
also gives arrangement to words through the regular use of accents on the
syllables, and help in emphasizing the specific words which the poet wishes to
use. This is the major reason for variations in the text through
stressed/unstressed patterns.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="background: #FFF9EE; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">"The Faux Pas"
was composed during my stay in New Zealand in the summer of 2005, to capture
the universal outcry when Prince Harry one of the sons of Prince Charles threw
a fancy-dress ball. Unknowing to the Prince, a picture of him wearing a Nazi
war symbol was taken by the paparazzi. This royal blunter caused eyebrows to be
raised among the Jewish community as well as with Leaders of Commonwealth
countries. They felt his behavior was not in keeping with someone who could be
heir to the British Crown. This conclusion was drawn from reports carried via
the dead tree and electronic media on the matter. The distraught Prince after
many days of mulling over this faux pas made a royal apology. This apology is
seen as a very heroic act executed by the Prince. This brought him back in good
favour with the people around the globe. This serves to strengthen the notion
that any sincere apology can heal wounds.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: #FFF9EE; mso-bidi-font-style: italic; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">The politics of 2016-2018
America among candidates for the various political positions have exhibited
behaviors that are social mistakes and more often than not are impolite or
beyond the pale. They have showcased their jungle-like behaviors so unbecoming
of a nation that is supposed to be civilized and a leader of the free-world.
However, no human being is perfect, but educated and civilized people of
America seeking ruler-ship positions in those political establishments should take
pause. They should not indulge in a barrage of ‘false steps’ and especially the
forty-fifth occupant in the White House. Sadly this is the cycle of the
present-day. One is left to say that candidates running for the highest office
in the land should avid for starters: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>nasty comments or the faux pas. These
embarrassing social mistakes should never become the main dish in the political
food-basket. I am mainly sounding the warning bell on the disgrace-full conduct
in political arenas aired on electronic communication devices and in the “free-press”.

<span style="color: black;">Crop Over
is a Bajan-Caribbean cane harvest festival in the West Indies. The festivities
run for several weeks to celebrate the end of the sugar cane harvest.<br />
<br />
Kadooment Day is the last day of Crop Over which commences on July 1 and ends
on the August 1. It is a summer street festival with all the noise, colour and
vibrancy you’d expect from a Caribbean festival. Folks get into the furrow with
local drinks and cuisine; join the throng as bands and calypso musicians parade
through the streets. Glittering costumes and plenty of “bare skin” are on show
amidst a melee of revellers, stilt walkers, musicians and entertainers. Such
fun and celebrations continue well into the wee hours of the morning so you’ll
need plenty of stamina. Tourists world over are drawn to this festival
annually.<br />
<br />
“fermented juice from a bamboo flask” = rum in bottle<br />
“sweet grass” = sugar cane<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Gone is the rain, chased by
sky candle. Everywhere is blooming, on bird-road the dragonfly, devil's darning
needle, ear cutter, snake doctor. Earth dwellers' dreadful names you wear; your
translucent wings soar in the sun. You stalk. You prey, in broad daylight. You
open mouth to prey, a predator on the loose. Mosquitoes, gnats are in your
noose. Flying high, you search for a mate. Rest, you must on blade of grass. In
careful watch, you must; children passing by, your wings wishing to pluck. How
they laugh at you, you standing on your head on the grass; tail straight, the
giraffe. In the groove, in the notch you conjugate. Mating wheel clear to
watch. Audible impact, the lust; teasing and fussing a dragonfly on my
callaloo; oh ho! you are the tantaboo.</div>

<i>Version 2 </i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>The rain is gone and the sky glows in the sun. Everywhere is blooming and in the sky is the dragonfly. The dragonfly is also known by such names as the "devil's darning needle" , air cutter and snake doctor.</i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>These names have been given to the dragonfly by people who have seen the way it behaves. People have observed that dragonfly is a predator for mosquitoes and gnats while flying in the air. </i></div>

<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>When not searching for food the dragonfly can be seen perched on the grass with a keen eyes out for its predators. When the dragonfly is not preying on mosquitoes and other flying insects it can be seen perched on grasses in a provocative stance. Its head is down on the grass or whatever, and its tail is straight in the air like the neck of a giraffe and kids find this stance of the dragonfly to be amusing while they plot to sneak yup quietly while its head is down on the ground and pluck its wings so to proof if the dragonfly can still fly.</i></div>

<i><b>Structure of the Dragonfly Poem</b></i><i> </i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>This "Dragonfly" poem is defined by rhythmical prose. Prose poems are set on the page in continuous sequence of sentences without line brakes. It establishes its poetic qualities through cadence, heightened imagery, parataxis and emotional effects as shown below:</i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>These names have been given to the dragonfly by people who have seen the way it behaves. People have observed that the dragonfly is a predator for mosquitoes and gnats while flying in the air.</i></div>

<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>Parataxis is what defines Prose Poetry. Normal Prose is defined by subordination conjunctions; line breaks and paragraphs. Parataxis is a poetic device that favors short simple sentences, with the use of coordinating rather than subordinating conjunctions. Examples of the use of paratactic syntax and as taken from poem "Dragonfly" are shown underlined in the excerpt below:</i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<u>Gone is the rain, chased by sky candle, on bird-road You stalk. You prey, in broad daylight. You open mouth to prey, a predator on the loose. In careful watch, you must; children passing by, your wings wishing to pluck, tail straight, the giraffe. In the groove, in the notch Mating wheel clear watch. Audible impact, the lust</u><i> </i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>The Simile is a poetic devise found in poems. In order to be a simile the word "like" or "as" must be present. This rule is broken in paratactic syntax: for example, take this excerpt from the prose poem, Dragonfly:</i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><u>...you standing on your head on the grass; tail straight, the giraffe...</u></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>Would you not say that "tail straight, the giraffe" is a special kind of simile, the "implied simile"? Some would say it is not a simile because it does not include "like" or "as". Some would say the phrase simply says that the giraffe tail is straight...and that would be correct. Some would say that the phrase is a simile because it is in a paratactic syntax. You know what, the answers supplied are correct because parataxis creates heaps of ambiguity and is only used in prose poetry and not used in regular prose or rhetoric. So yes, "tail straight. the giraffe" is an "implied simile".</i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>Bear in mind though, that "parataxis" is a poetic device that favours short, simple sentences with coordinating rather than subordinating conjunctions. Parataxis is also refers to a technique in prose poetry in which two images or fragments usually startle dissimilar images or fragments, are juxtaposed without a clear connection. Readers are left to make their own connections by the paratactic syntax. The "implied simile" can be found in prose poetry.</i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>Another poetic device used in Prose Poetry is "kenning" where a phrase is used to describe a common thing. Some kennings can be more obscure than others, and then grow close to being a riddle. Kenning can be more obscure than others, and then grow close to being a riddle. Kenning is a much-compressed form of metaphor; and object is described in a two-word phrase. Here is an example:</i></div>

<i>The dragonfly mates in the air in what is known as the mating wheel. The baby dragonfly is called a larva but its proper name is a nymph. It is an aquatic insect because the female dragonfly lays its eggs in stagnant water where they hatch and fly away as dragonflies.</i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="background: white; margin: 0.05in 0in; text-align: left;">
<i>Here are more facts concerning the dragonfly. It is an insect in the order odonata; with multifaceted eyes, two pairs of transparent wings and an elongated body. It is different from the damselfly because the damselfly's wings are not held along and parallel to the body when at rest and its eyes are separated. They do share similar morphing skills.</i></div>

<i>The dragonfly is an important predator feeding on mosquitoes and other small insects like flies, bees, ants, wasps. Very rarely does the dragonfly eat butterflies. Stagnant water because any army of dragonflies keep hovering it. The dragonfly's egg is the larva and the proper name for it is nymph and lives in the water for a long time before morphing into a dragonfly and is therefore aquatic. Though the dragonfly is predator, birds, lizards, frogs, spiders, fish, water bugs and even other large dragonflies are its predators. </i><br />

<span style="font-size: 17px;">To great extent, people mean so much more</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">In the jails we lock up males and females</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Nevertheless, people we must adore</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">With human kindness let no one curtails.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">People like roses are found far and near</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Among Asia and lands across the sea</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Petals are those families there to care</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">And cherish those colours and names we see.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The mind becomes the interpretive dance</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">As eyes behold the wonderful valley</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">In Arkles Bay where trees do dance and prance</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Around those homes, children do play gladly.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">As delicate as rose-petals unwind</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">But tough as thorns, which grow to guard the stem</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Yet beautiful mid shine and rain behind</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The rainbow of love from us we give them.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Fragile is life, and round the globe lies strife</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Nature is stressed; oceans in deep motion</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Tsunami waved to cut with butcher's knife</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">With vengeful acts, God's work of creation.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">As folks did eat beneath the Christmas tree</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Never a thought that plates would crash on floor</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Instincts made animals and birds to flee</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The leap-year tide did wash dead shoals ashore.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The day Tsunami washed away the ground</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">His waves were more that fifteen meters high</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The pelts of folks did carpet ground around</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Heaps of carrion fumes perfumed the sky.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The blooms of earth did wash away that day</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">By Davy Jones a fraught with bloody rage</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">On Boxing Day beneath a sky so grey</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Now growing poppies write their story page.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">What great sadness lingers in minds not clear</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The loss surpassed Ivan in Grenada</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">This catastrophic blow still Ache's fear</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">That sent after shocks beyond Nevada.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">The heavy ruin plays on most CDs</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">To cue the minds to graves with drab decor</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">As fingers scratched for life amid debris</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">They longed once more for blissful days of yore.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">To keep this hope alive with will to strive</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Humanity rose with great devotion</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">As people across the globe took the drive</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">They sent dough to souls with deep emotion.</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;"></span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Their cries of praise reached on high Jehovah</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">For hearts of gold that eased the souls' laments</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">To lands of the Asian Diaspora</span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 17px;">Life-water flows out of those gory tents.</span><br />

is made up of a short monorhyme. The first two verses rhyme with a repeated
rhyme in the second of each succeeding couplet. The Ghazal usually deals with
themes of love in a melancholy mood. The roots of the Ghazal blossomed in
seventh-century Arabia and gained prominence in the thirteenth- and
fourteenth-century much credit to such poets as Rumi and Haftz. In the
eighteenth-century, the Ghazal was used by poets writing in Urdu, a mix of the
medieval languages of Northern India, including Persian. Among these poets,
Ghalib is the recognized master.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Indian musicians such as Ravi Shankar and Begum
Akhtar popularized the Ghazal in the English-speaking Diaspora during the
1960s. The poet Agha Shahid Ali introduced the Ghazal in its classical form to
Americans.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Ali practiced his poetic
craft in USA universities before cancer took his life in December of 2001. He
left with English Poetry writers’ a legacy on how to write a Ghazal based on
its traditional roots since it appeared from his many poetic statements he was
not particularly a fan of Ghazal in free verse. His guidelines on how to write
an English Ghazal suggested the following:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">No enjambments between couplets</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Couplets should be linked to a strict
formal scheme</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The rhyme scheme and refrain should
remain the same throughout the Ghazal</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">Each line should have the same length
inclusive of rhyme and refrain whether the verses </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">are metrical or syllabic<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The last couplet should be a
signature couplet</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">The scheme of rhyme and refrain
should emerge from the opening couplet of the Ghazal</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">These pointers have influenced how the poem, “The Tear-filled Heart” is written. During
the composition of this English Ghazal, every effort was made to ensure that
the poem reflected this “constant longing”. The Ghazal is defined by this
constant longing. This conforms to Ali's view. The poem, "The Tear-filled Heart" has eleven tetrameter couplets. A couplet has two successive
verses of poetry, is usually of equal length and rhythmic correspondence with
end-words that rhyme. The couplet is the shortest stanza form. It is joined
frequently with other couplets, to form a poem with no stanzaic divisions.</span></div>

the same end rhyme. An end rhyme is a rhyme occurring in the terminating word
or syllable of one verse of poetry with that of another verse, as oppose to
internal rhyme.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">A refrain can sit on a stanza, verse, or phrase,
generally pertinent to the central theme, which is repeated verbatim, usually
at regular intervals throughout a poem, most often at the end of a stanza.</span></div>
