This Poem Is About Itself

by @walker-marema

This poem is about itself How did it become in the first place Oh, it just did I guess. It’s not deep It’s just about…… Itself It’s not even that good Ummmmmm…. What else can it say about itself? It’s written in English. That’s a fact It’s a very factual poem And it knows it It knows it very well There’s not very many big word in it As far as it knows It’s still pretty curious as to how it came to be So…..let’s think about it together So… If this poem is only referencing itself And we know it is by definition Then, how could it have referenced itself in the first place? We know, also by definition that it exists But the only reason it exists, is because at one point it didn’t exist Because it had to have started from somewhere Otherwise it would have just been here to begin with There has to be an answer, because, well, it exists…… I think it’s ranting now. What do you think? Is there seriously not an answer to this? This is gonna drive me nuts I think I’m about to lose my mind Is it over?
