I’d rather rhyme and meter my dreams, But you like your verse jagged, And ugly-built. I’ll try it loose and anti-styled, Formless as pooled tears In maudlin drops. Drink them!

Steve, love this! Poets come in all styles, don't they? You might enjoy an older poem of mine that expresses a similar message, "Poetry." Best wishes, Carolyn
