yes, most of the time. But right now when my minds a little bit fuzzy, maybe not.

Ahhh, the music of the universe. I love that sound. Everyone’s so scared of it. You made my night. Thank you.

Very expressive. I like the flow of this poem with its onomatopoeic sounds.

Look at that big word. You must know something about iambic.

Learned this in school long ago, interpreted such kind of poems, but thanks for refreshing the types of metrical foot: “iambic: A metrical foot of two syllables with the second accented.” (from: https://www.thefreedictionary.com/iambic), using iambs (https://www.thefreedictionary.com/iamb)
So your piece is iambic, KT?

No. Read some Dickinson. She was the queen. Still is the queen. Iambic just means it has a beat or rhythm: four words per line, five, six even… but you hold the word count to create flow. I write in free verse and use rhyme to create the rhythm. Iambic is seldom used anymore. Bukowski’s fault, but he’s amazing.
