Rapid Rhyme
Rapid rhyme,
who has the time
when steady and deliberate
is more delicately exhibited.
Giving it a try
but my fingers are denied
this rehearsed terse
is unfamiliar verse
dancing in nerve endings
poetic form I'm pretending
of exhibitional imposed prose
reveling mysterious majestic flows,
painting a picture more vivid
with words less inhibited.
Now I'm stuck
questioning my luck
at rhyme that makes me squeamish
tried failure or success, this contest is fiendish.
