Strange Eh

The pressure is on, can't let a day go by Without writing a poem... that would be unthinkable The Poetry Police would be breaking down my door And exacting severe punishment Us poet guys are committed (or should be! LOL) A bit of humour there... Even on those days when it feels like we're brain dead We must call on all the intestinal fortitude we can muster Even if it's just a five line limerick What about a five line narrative? Does that work or am I twisting the rules? What do you call this thingy dingy that you're reading now Ha! Gotcha... it's a POEM!!!!! What a tricky guy I am... When writing about writing a poem, I'm writing a poem Strange eh!

Poetic license allows us to throw out the rule books, so write away, Jack.

Rules persist but we don't have to follow them! They were concocted by other people! LOL Love, Happy Jack XOX
