Once upon a time I use to submit my poetry to a website that allowed poets and writers to come together and read, critic and share their work. I was constantly critisized for my lack of structure and punctuation but would argue that my writing style was part of the overall experience when reading my work.
Rejecting the arguement, many of my peers would ask me to re-write the work to fit their standards before they would rate it. So I decided to give them a new piece to review and rate. It would demand they step outside the "standard" and review the work from a new perspective.
Needless to say, I was given 5 out of 5 stars from everyone and was accepted as an exciting and unique new poet.

you ask for original, i invent new wordz.
a comma here, capitalize This There.
it's up surd!
my style is this, hit it or miss,
but you have to understand;
if i drag on a line contradicting the rhyme absorbing your time it's only because i'm...
a complicated man.
flip flop'n chop shop'n words on the fly.
sympathizing empathizing de-emphasizing "I".
it's humbleness.
the writer's unique.
third person verses mixed when first person speaks.
imagery?
tell me what you want.
me standing here just about to punt...
your ass!
imagine that!
that's as clear as it gets just in case you asked.
does it flow?
HELL NO!
maybe it was written 'cause the writer didn't want it so.
(that's flow)
so there you go.
my style is this.
just to let you know.
