| | I am Writing This Poem to be School AppropriateI am writing this poem for a reading at my school, Probably full of people I closely know, and then -- just the opposite. I don't want to say that my poetry is too honest, All I'm really saying is that it's not school appropriate. No one wants to hear about how I was nearly naked in front of another person, Or how we don't remeber how we met, and how I think I'm in love with him. And not the, "I say I love you after a week" teenage love. The, "Love only hurts because one day you'll die forever without me" love. Or how I write about weed and cigarettes, Neither of which I smoke. I am writing this poem while listening to Sondre Leche, Whose CD I picked up because I like his name, and it was free. And the music is medicore at best. I wonder if this poem is mediocre, at best. He said that pretzels fell like tears upon the sidewalk, Which I can only equate with a bitter joke he has with an ex-girlfriend. Also, with New York, which I will be packing for once I read this poem at my school. Assuming I have done so at all.
I don't want to say that my poetry is too honest, But it definitely doesn't try to make rhyme work, And sometimes I wonder if it's even poetry. You can still break rambling into lines and stanzas.
All I'm saying is that I'll never be school appropriate. |
