I'm Not Going to Write Any More Poems

This is a poem about poetry.

That’s it; I’ve had it with poetry

I’m not going to write any more poems

I have nothing else to say

Who values my work?

I’m through with imagination

 

Poetry is a heap of rubbish!

I don’t even want to read it

I quit writing from now on

It’s not benefiting me

I’m just wasting my time

 

Wait a minute, this doesn’t sound right

Oh, what am I saying?

Poetry is a part of my life

I live and breathe poetry

How could I go on without it?

 

I’m having a bad day

I didn’t mean the things I said

Everyone has mood swings

That’s not a good excuse,

So I make a quick retraction

Author's Note

At first, this one fooled many people.

Sometimes I get there too. But it is the only thing that keeps me alive. I feel dead out of it.
