​poems


You are not poetry

3/9/2017

Comments

 
The thing about poetry is it was never really meant to rhyme. It was just words, written or spoken with elegance. Often melodic, but not even that was a requirement. It just needed to be beautiful and significant. But people, we desire order. So we sentenced poetry to structure. We said rhyme at the end of each line, or you are not poetry. We said write about love or tragedy, or you are not poetry. We said we want tempo that is easy to follow, or you are not poetry. We said follow our rules, or you are not poetry.

Well, rules, to you I say... enjoy my poetry. ​​
