Poetry

Inspired by Jessie's demo about "Ars Poetica."

I don't know about the idea of Poetry

                                    MetaphOrs and similes in British accents

                     Why am I so scarEd of the unknown?

                                     I try to Tease out meaning

                           But become fRustrated at the unblinking words

                                           whY?

The Mustnotshouldbe writer

The mustnotshouldbe writer cannot find her place
She think's she's doing great until grades smack her in the face
This is what she was supposed to do since she was very small
But the mustnotshouldbe writer feels only a foot tall.

She sits and stares at letters that mean far below the best
Though this is her destiny, she might just give up next
She struggles with identity and what herself to call
The mustnotshouldbe writer maybe isn't one at all.
