PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

What would I do if my poetic license were revoked?

Sit in my room and cry like the ugliest child in the world

For I got it from a Cracker Jack box anyway

Though I was hoping for a baseball card

And it must have restrictions anyway

For poetry should rhyme

Be sprinkled with violets and roses

Puppies, lovers, and sunsets

But four lines and a single metaphor

Do not a poem make

If the gods of verse take it away

I’ll get another at Sears

For they’re in a clearance bin

Beside the car batteries
