20 Line Limit

This is what I’m facing Constant thoughts pacing As if they were racing But I’m tasting Poetic frustration Writing poetry in 20 lines??? Not with this extra space that I’m wasting But what’s wrong with this nation, Limiting my poetic congregation To decrease my lyrical fluctuation That’s why many lines are vacant Poetry readers are impatient But they’re going to hear my poetic donation Full of information Of a poet’s fixation To “Poeticize” this nation, My poetic foundation Comes from lyrical conversations My limitations compared to yours is amazing The mark of Jesus Christ is what I’m chasing But thanks to me and my pen’s affiliation This poet shall influence my Lord God’s creation.
