Aspies For Freedom

Sysiphus has but a single stone, to which his might's constrained,
Mine are the thousand pebbles which from his rock, crushed, might remain.

I wrote other poems but I forgot them.  Besides, they werent in english and didnt make much all that much sense in latin either. (im an AP latin student, which consists mostly of reading very old poetry, some of which is quite funny and rather dirty)  I wrote an elegiac couplet once (the meter should indicate the subject matter to anyone familiar with classical poetry), which I rather liked, maybe I should try to reconstruct it.

Sometimes I think in meter.  Hendecasyllabic, most often.  Or dactylic hexameter.

Nice poem!  In English recently we had to write poems and then move around and read each others poems and comment on them.  I used the word 'palindrome', and half the comments said something like 'I like the way you've used french words in this poem.  Or is it latin?' or 'I like the way you've used non-English words'  

:?  

Oh well!

Of the poetry I have written, english is the exception rather than the rule.  I usually write in latin, and I suspect my writing is most heavily influenced by Catullus and Ovid.  Hence the use of elegiac meter and hendecasyllabic.
