He Writes Poetry

He writes poetry Like Christopher Reeve’s Break-dancing Could you read this poem He asks And you would love to If only between the spelling And the handwriting There was a way Of deciphering What it was that he wrote But There are those Who think he’s the best thing Since popcorn … I’m not one That’s not to say I haven’t tried To understand What the hell he writes about But my days as a cryptographer Have long since gone Still I know a few people That I visit From time to time Who enjoy both his poetry And thorazine I mean After all He writes poetry

We all know people who scribble inane or incomprehensible lines and call it poetry...I hope I am not one; you certainly are not. Your lines are clear and succinct...
