Panagiota Romios Poet Free verse

Poetry Race Popularity

Tell me I am crazy!

Is there a race here to write the the shortest poems possible just to be
popular?

I think so at times. Tell me not to sell my soul or style, please do.

Just to write more...for the purpose of wearing a crown?

I need a poet magician to support my in my position.

I am tempted to sell out on myself!

Tell me not to be cool, but to be original and real!

In truth, what happens, I have no zeal.

I don't want the roar of the crowd.

My lifelong problem...when trying to be popular..

I end up selling out on myself!

I like experimenting with all sorts of forms; there's also the challenge of putting a big picture in a few words. Panagiota Romios March 29, 2019 at 9:06 AM ML..I read your poetry. Its beautiful. And thank you for clarifying this for me. Makes total sense to me. Thanks, Panagiota
