Poetry or Prose

A Poem by Leviathus Fortes

When I think of poetry
I think of words that rhyme
That's how I had learned it
Once upon a time

I'm told there is a rhythm
How the words should flow
If there is rhythm without rhyme
Is it considered prose

Always a theme, inside my head
With everything I pen
If it's all poetry to me
Where does the prose begin

I write them as if song
Reading back, sometimes I sing
Constantly playing with these words
New rearrangement do I bring

So I ask myself one question
Each time that I am done
If they are always set to music
What should they become

Each style has a rhythm
Every word, a tune
Carefully, I piece together
To make the phrasing swoon

A dance I am creating
With every single word
If spoken, they, out loud
What rhythm will be heard

Always to be writing
I'd stop it if I could
Between poetry and prose
I've never understood
