"Title"

by Isail

April 5, 2022

I’m not sure why,

But coming up with a title is a lot more complicated than I thought,

At first you just type “The _________” and you’re done right?

But over time it just gets confusing,

And now creativity has to go into the name of all things,

I don’t know but it seems a bit funny to me,

No matter what the title is,

The author’s name is bigger than it.

So what’s the point?

Something wrong with this poem?

The tone seems honest with a hint of ridicule. It asks the audience of 'title-makers' the true purpose by the end of the day.Personification of the difference between the size of the author and the title contributes well to the mood of the story.The use of blanks, questions, and personal thoughts elaborates the purpose of the writing greatly. Each line gives a meaningful pause which helps the reader take in the moment.

I really like this concept of struggling with the title. I think that it is super relatable. I like that you used free verse and it helps it feel more chaotic. I think it is goodthe way it is though I disagree with the author always being bigger than the title.
