What is poetry?
What is poetry?This concept still eludes meTo me it's simplyA rhyme scheme of a&b And to set the flowFive to seven syllablesAnd for what I knowIt should then stay meaningful You must choose your wordsIt should never make us feelLike a flightless birdTrying to find their next meal I won't claim to know the artsOr try to boast about my smartsBut poetry that doesn't rhymeOr a rough beat that's not in lineKills the flowLike this....................................................................It's very tough to start againTry to immerse yourself, my friendSimply calm your aching heartAnd let the beat once again startHERE WE GO!Step to the beat, ste-step to the beat!I bet right now you're tappin your feet!Here we go-go, speeding things up yo!For a good show, keep up the beat, bro!Then turn right around and take it slooooowGive your emotion. time. to. grow.breath in deep.... and out like thisThen sit back... and feel the blissFeel it wash all over you.OH LORD, if you only knewHow absolutely disgusting and jarring this last line is.
