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.
