What is a poem?
Is it an artistic representation
Or just some fancy words
Split across weird line breaks?
What is a poem?
Is it a rhythmic ensemble
Or some emotional preamble
Meant to intensify how things are spoken?
What is a poem?
Is it meant to incite fear
Or love, or hate, or passion
In ways we don’t normally imagine?
What is a poem
But a group of words,
Made to make us accept
Things that are absurd.
What is a poem
But an extension of self,
Meant to present
Our mind’s great wealth.
Hey everyone,
I just kinda put this together off the top of my head. I’ve never been to great a rhyming, but I’ve got a little bit of that in here. The more I do it, the easier it gets. I kinda like how this has some of the tropes of poetry. But it really is just sprung from my mind. Let me know what you think! Have a great weekend!
