Meticulous and Ridiculous

Meticulous and Ridiculous

Writing many poems which may be meticulous 
All could be completely, utterly, literally ridiculous 
And if you have continued to look all around
You might find each one in the lost and found.

From the very first moment that I saw them
I knew they would be grotesque and grim
And out the window would find them thrown
Like some ugly features made out of silicone.

Maybe my writing might be a mishap
And in the face there once was a slap
Even after further and more consulting
My poems were found to be insulting.
