I wish people would learn
That line breaks in places
That seem unlikely
Does not
Make
It
Poetry.

I don’t even subscribe
To the theory
That all poetry must
Rhyme
But writing
Like this
Makes me think
You talk
Like a Valley Girl
And every
Line
Must end
With an Uptalk inflection
Like you’re asking
A question

  2. IT IS WITHOUT A DOUBT
    THAT FOR YOU, I MUST SHOUT.
    IF I TYPE IN ALL CAPS
    I’D BE A WHITE BOY WHO RAPS?

    Nope… poetry just isn’t my bag. Nevermind.

  3. but this just represses
    my inclinations
    and deliberately stifles
    my observations
    although i respect that
    your attitude’s zealous
    i can’t help but feel
    you’re simply just jealous

  4. A poem should rhyme
    Most of the time
    And not have white space
    All over the place

    BURMA SHAVE

    (by the way I think you have actually written a pretty nice poem)
