poetry, poetry why don't you grow a tree? then you could contribute something positive to society and when you die it will be tall as can be for all to see and you can sleep happy thinking of your tree and the good it will bring with fruit and shade and fun and smiles and they will all be so thankful for years to come but poetry? poetry rots poetry sits at the bottom of your desk, of your trash poetry creates waste junk of the heart so just lead a simple life a happy life that is my advice to you but only you can choose whether to heed it or ignore it
