PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

gratitude is not conducive for  good start on a

romantic relationship

don't laugh for 'tis true

this wisely offered but tired tip

now, over all forms of pleasantries please do let us

skip

in the bud soon this misunderstood mood I feel I must

nip

the bitter nastiness present on my young tongue

I can now nearly taste

so much is quickly written down that it becomes

barely legible when done in such haste

is it my fault that my love for speed-writing can not

to its beginning origins be traced

all that is needed for this lifetime is a mental

incinerator to place all the excess waste

the whole lot is garbage some would be quick to say

but hell, what do stuffy Publishers know about free

style poetry anyway

more than you ( and me!) obviously...............
