You may disagree with what I say But Poetry is supposed to have teeth And if you disagree That means I win Because I made you feel something
You may not like my point of view But Poetry is a form of expression A means to protest Its not for the faint of heart Its for the strong in thought
And to be true
The greatest poets of all time Are the most controversial
At least they were in their own time
My take on why poetry is not respected like it used to be. Poets are supposed to speak truth, regardless of public opinion. If you want to understand what I mean read more of my poems
