When I Write a Poem
>When I write a poem!
When I write a poem.
I do it just for fun.
I do not mean to cause offence.
Not to anyone.
When I say not to anyone.
I do not mean to someone else.
As reading inbetween those lines.
Not to anyone, could mean to someone else.
Explaining wrong in poetry.
The lines do get quite long.
I might need to write sideways on my paper.
To get a line upon.
Alas, as it is, my poetry!
I know my lines, sometimes, go on and on.
And they do take much poetic thought for me on which to dwell, so now I just overlap and start another line as well.
And if readers do not like it.
Well, let them, go and do better now.
And if you thought I’d say something else, well you were wrong as well.
I do not know what this type of poetry is called. So I make an appeal to anyone reading,if you could tell me what the correct form is? I would be deeply grateful. Thank you. (The Poetry Soup Honorable Mentioned mad Author)
