Insulting poets!
Ah sure anyone can write poetry, if they’re willing to
try.
Just pick up a pen, grab some paper, and let it flow.
A historic statement from those who’s pen is always dry.
From those who’d have you believe they are truly in the
know.
Poetry is easy just put some words on a page.
Ridiculous to think you might have to serve time.
Learning to recite or perform on a stage.
Learning meter, rhythm, style or rhyme.
Learn to send a message within those words.
Put effort into structure so that others will know.
Sure anyone can shout over a microphone and be heard.
No knowledge required no history in tow.
Yet why frequent readings each and every week?
If anyone can do it find better ways to spend your time.
Other than try to ridicule the meek.
Perhaps hide the fact within yourself all is not so fine.
Untrue to say “anyone can write” poetry on a page.
Your ignorance shows by the remarks you utter.
Your blank facial expression shows how you disengage.
You say poets writers are a bunch of nutters.
Still you return week after week.
For an hour you live through someone else’s word.
Insulting words are all you speak.
Forcing yourself over others to be heard.
Every poet here has set themselves a task.
At every level to try their best.
Over time improving their poets mask,.
Their work laid out put to the poets test.
So no not everyone can poetry write.
Not all can put words on a paper slip.
If poetry serves to have you contrite.
Stay home we’ll send you your chips.
