Shape Poem

So the shape
Of the poem 
Does not have
To be the subject
Of the poem.
Aha!  Got it. After reading the   rules twice,   and then thrice, as I did not believe myself the first time or two.  But  what to write?  Something that rhymes?  An acrostic?    A quatrain?  I am in a quandary here, Sometimes the easiest thing  to do  becomes  the hardest when you  apply the dendrites and think too hard.   I know this and yet, I am not the most prolific bard. What is the contest holder looking for? Some  thing  unique,  simple, well-written and fine.  I have to admit I am not as  confident as  at most other times. I do  not want to  write about a                                        couch, but   here it is Lying in my  mind, big time as I                                      try to create one. In a new and unusual way.  As                                          it is available and I am worn out just trying, I will lie			                 on it now and take my well deserved cat nap. At rest	                                 now. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
