Poetry Is a Necessity

Poetry is a necessity
These words my breath
Blows thoughts in profusion
Into a windswept field
Your hair is golden
And speckled
Like the hayfield
I say thanks
But I am not thankful
Aura this and aura that
Aura just a little bit
A thesis on poetry 
Is time well spent 
And time in the physics lab
Is time better spent
Sipping coffee with friends
Even if it is starbucks.
