Is poetry even necessary When it's essence is captured In a reflective meme Embedded in a lovely landscape Or some such visual? Ideas in an instant. Deep thoughts in seconds. Am I, a wannabe poet, obsolete, Sitting at my desk Pouring over a page Desiring to share a journey to my notions Via the written word? Is it worth the philosophical pilgrimage Roaming through qualifiers And climbing over attributes To get a glimpse of the profound, When a simple Google search can score me That view in a wink? To me, my friend, the literary trek Is worth the time expended. The sweat and required pauses Make that final view all the more Delightful.
