Example Poem
My poet never lets me run and play
and crash and boom and flash the room and flirt.
“Wear this! “, he says, and not the mini-skirt.
“A sonnet form? No take that thing away.
and crash and boom and flash the room and flirt.
“Wear this! “, he says, and not the mini-skirt.
“A sonnet form? No take that thing away.
You say you won’t undress me like your whore.
I want to tease and titillate, you jerk
this rigid form I will not wear to work!
I won’t set one small iamb out that door.”
“Look you most silly filly of a verse,
I could wrap your fine curves in something worse-
a double dactyl or a free verse cough.
Try this, for me today and make me proud,
if you do that, tonight you’ll be allowed
to loosen this, or maybe take it off. “
