This Isn't Poetry
July 18, 2015
This isn't poetry,
But I'm writing in verse.
This isn't poetry; it's not as good as my first.
This isn't poetry,
And I can't lie
If I read this, I'd rather die.
This isn't poetry
It's way less
Because, if it was, I wouldn't be obsessed.
This isn't poetry,
But I'm writing in verse
So drink it up
Like its something special
And don't remind me
Not to verse in pencil.

this is poetry, I tell the truth, though the poetry of a youth. This is nice, and very cute, but as I hear no voice, the read is mute. I enjoyed the piece and its explanations, of why this isn't poetry but information. So take these few words as a token, that I enjoyed it, the justice has spoken :P
