Quote of all time:
Wilfred Owen:
All the poet can do today is warn.
That is why true Poets must be truthful.
Simply put: This will be a little something Im doing where Im taking famous quotes, placing them at the top of my poem(to give some insight to my poem) and finally writing the poem itself
UPDATE:
Since I'm in the process of trying to get published, I will be titling and retitling all of my quote poetry but will still keep them numbered(for my own sakes)
