Is This Poetry

is this poetry?

ee cummings

darnit

they had time

to think of metaphor, allegory, imagery, rhythm, rhyme meter

I don't have time

this is poetry

of the apocalypse

poetry of the end

I don't have the time

lost at the end of time

at the end of property

wherefore art thou time

wherefore art tho anything

everything is going

therefore time to begin anew

time to wipe this slate clean

get that eraser

wipe wipe wipe wipe

dust of corruption

choking us

choking thoughts

choking creativity

choking emotions

transferring to rage

ptsd syndrome

afraid to leave my house

afraid to go to the store

afraid to go to the gym

21st century

post-apocalyptic

insanity.
