POETRY INVOICE ON A TALK WITH KAYEON Host - Prince Joe Guest - Kayeon Onyeka Topic: LITERARY DISCUSSION ON EMOTIONS AND MEMORIES IN WRITING. H: So, quick one, before we start, can you please define yourself in just (1) word? G: Wordmaker. H: Interesting, this speaks a lot though. Ok, not to waste much time, according to the given topic, lets starts from EMOTIONS. In your opinion, and coupled with your experience what does EMOTION means to you? G: Emotions for me plays a huge part in my life because they drive (consciously and unconsciously) my perspective, actions and sometimes realities. But I must be quick to mention that it is not the most rational way to live, cos it subjects you to mood swings and uncertainty but most times they propeller the most powerful words and actions H: Great.

POETRY INVOICE ON A TALK WITH ESV_KEKS Host: Prince Joe Guest: Esv_keks TOPIC: LITERARY DISCUSSION ON EDITING AND SUBMISSION. H: sir. Like we always do, in 1 word, describe yourself? G: Weird. H: Hmm, thoughtful. Quick one, sir, concerning tonight's topic, let's start from the angle of EDITING. To your experience, do you have better meaning of what editing means?. G: Well. In my opinion. Editing simply means correcting, condensing, and modifying/revising the first draft of any literary work of art before submission to any journal, magazine or anthology is being made. & the sole aim of editing is to bring the work closer to perfection.

Every work of art is subjective. No matter how good it is. Since as a writer you're not writing just fo

Sir, according to the Theme for tonight, kindly tell us, what PUNCHLINES mean to you? ( due to your experience) G: To me, a punchline is the garment poetry wears to transform into what a lay man can relate with while maintaining the originality of poetry. Intensively, it is a cocktail of euphemism, metaphor, personification and smile H: Hmmm, so, are you saying, we cannot make any PUNCHLINE without having to do with any figures of speech? G: Well, punchline is a wider concept than I've just described, but a punchline wouldn't be a punchline if the person using it isn't employing some figure of speech. H: Wow. That's true. Thanks for that clarification. Sir, can
