what poem?

the thought was to be more ... something ... i would write what is not usual and may be called a poem if only because it falls into no other neat category, even if it is not a "poem" either.
Iambic pentameter ... what is that?
Haiku ... five, seven and so on but the japanese (the purists) say in english it's not no matter what since the feel, the resonance of the words is essential to the form ... but in japanese, not english
Sonnets? not a clue
So what is not just rambling thought with mostly complete sentences with mostly the appopriate parts (subject, verb, etc) is what i mean to put here ...
call it poetry or not, call it scat perhaps.
But if you never do it, it just won't be.
R wants me to submit to a juried competition ... i would point out he reads mostly topical things like photos mags, consumer reports and newspapers, and tech books on tech things ... but he also reads at times anyway the other blog and -- though nice enough to not let on he reads it -- has suggested I do this thing.
Submit five pages anonymously.
That's it -- there's nothing else to do, at least not to enter anyway.
Do I have five pages? I'm chagrined to say I do ... but of what?
It's anonymous he reminds me -- yes, but if they reject me, there will be tha many more of us who know this is a silly exercise in vanity, pretending i can write when i know in all reality that i can't ... and i'm not ready to quit pretending yet that i can.
