Notes About The Poem

Sponsor: Sara Kendrick 

Contest: Simplicity Contest

Simple As That

There’re merits to simplicity! 
It’s void of dark duplicity, 
It’s lacking eccentricity 
In its mundane basicity. 

Complexity, troublesome trait, 
Catchy, sophisticated bait, 
Morphs into agitated  state -   
Perplexity where nothing’s straight. 

My ex and I were simply screwed 
By absence of similitude. 
Me being a simplistic dude, 
Irreconcilable, I conclude!
