Don’t Look Now, But Poetry Is In

If you’re reading this you know it:
Poetry is in.
Read and written
By those one or two aware or metaphysical,
Those more than few in love, depressed,
Oppressed, repressed;
Just pressed to write.

It’s right to write a stanza,
A romance -a, spectacular extravaganza
For whatever and wherever
There’s
A public where
There wasn’t.

Rhyme, no rhyme,
Minus meter,
Syntax less or more,
Ignored.
It matters or…
It doesn’t.
The objective is to say it,
Think it
In no special order,
Murdering the word
Or helping word to smolder
On a reader’s shoulder.

Poetry is definitely
Back in
Fashion.
