Giving Up On Poetry

I can’t seem to find the right key
To write this poetry
Love is good and hate is bad
Which one should I choose

One liner or two liner
How do you choose
Rim Rhyme or chime
To many choices to choose

10 Syllables and Punctuation
What is it and where do they go
I don’t know
This poetry is to confusing to me

Words I spell look good to me
But it always seems to have 
The wrong meaning for me
Poetry or Me which one do I choose

Inspired by: One of Chris Poems

John Lawless December 21, 2018 at 3:31 PM ..."DON'T FIGHT IT!! WRITE IT!!!" Used that as a workshop title and had some great fun with some poets.

Phil Capitano December 21, 2018 at 7:28 AM Poetry is a difficult task master; she pushes you to spill the beans and when its done it looks like a mess. Wait, now I'm confused ~ is this supposed to be helpful? Anyway, keep writing and have a joyful season.
