However poem

[Papa1]

I don't write poetry because I find nothing
beautiful
and because nothing is worth
mimicking
I don't write poetry because I have nothing to say
I don't write poetry because cheeks are cheeks
and eyes are eyes
not roses
or oceans
no matter what I say
I don't write poetry because poetry died a long time ago
I don't write poetry because poetry is mute
I don't write poetry because poetry is too flamboyant
I don't write poetry because I know poetry
I don't write poetry because I don't know
I don't write poetry because to be powerful you can't
touch it
I don't write poetry because I'm no shit shiner
I don't write poetry because the world is one way, one way, one way
one way
However,
sometimes at night
just to pass the time...

I write poetry.


I like the pedestrian tone of this poem.

 

[Papa1]

Hey I write poetry too! Don't let the poem fool you.

But, yes, it's about sentiments that sometimes stop me from writing. They're all wrong, of course.

And... "pedestrian". Thanks :D
