No Poet
I write what I write
No Fear No Reason
I write what I write
to fit the season
I don't know genre
so don't have a fit
Knowing the form
doesn't make it legit
I never studied
to learn structure or form
so all that I write
may be labeled free form
I know this will exclude me
from many contests
But I write what I feel
in whatever context
All I can say is my best
you may never see
online or posted
for public scrutiny
If I were to learn
to structure as I write
the message could change
you can't say I'm not right
It is what it is
it is what you get
Know it comes from the heart
as the seasons see fit
