Writing a poem is hard. I’m telling you straight up, no lie.
There’s a lot to worry about, like words, length and rhyme.
I can tell you right now if this wasn’t an assignment there would be no chance
Of me doing this, just like you’d never catch me doing a dance
To any song ever. I’ve had to think a lot about what to write
Mostly ‘cause I’m not allowed to use any obscene language, right?
It was hard. Most of my other poems involved bashing the other kids in IB
And if you ask me they deserve it for being way too cocky.
Bragging about that perfect score on the ACT and the SAT
Acting as if you know the answer to every question you see.
I thought about writing a poem for a girl, the one with so much sass
That it’s almost intolerable except ****, that ***.
But I lied, there’s no girl, I just wanted to say ***.
Oh please, grow up, you guys are practically high school dropouts: no class
In reality, I wasted an entire poem on not even having a specific topic
And I don’t see a problem with that, even if you might. You can just **** it.
Up. **** it up.
All people that happen to come to mind when reading this is completely unintentional and just the benefits of great writing.
