-an experiment poem
This is a poem of a cat. The poem draws a picture of the cat
on the paper. The picture is drawn with words and letters, but not with
sentences. The word CAT does not appear, but these words are the body of
a cat, for example eye, mouth, paw and whisker. Other words are added to put
the cat in a place, for example dish and litter box. These tell us the cat is a
pet and not a wild cat. The poem ‘Concrete Cat’ is an example of concrete poem.
It is a poem made for the eyes. The major focus of the poem is with the
physical appearance of poetry not with ideas and emotions. Concrete poems are
different from other poems they use words to create an image on the page.
