To be a good poet
you have got to know it
Know what I hear you cry
and also ask the reason why
You need rhyme, words and wit.

To be a good poet needs time
Time to get the words to rhyme
I've got other fish to fry
No time to actually try
Is that such a big crime?

When you're satisfied with your verse
And it's trending thanks to your purse
Look back and smile
because it took a while
which to me couldn't be any more worse.
