What should I write about?

I can't seem to think.

My poetry talent is filling with doubt,

It seems to be as bad as my lackluster "wink"

 

Maybe I will write about my life?

How much I love who I am.

I could write about my strife,

Or how I strike life like a battering ram.

 

Those all seem so "cliche"

I need to think DEEP.

Should I write about today?

Or how I didn't get any sleep?

 

No one cares about those things...

But what can I make interesting?

I cold exaggerate my love life...

Nope, that wouldn't be anything.

 

All right. Here we go. I'll write what first comes to mind.

I will close my eyes and wait,

And hope there is something to find.

Just set my thoughts strait...

 

Roses are red,

Violets are blut,

This prom won't work,

Maybe I should write a haiku

 

Okay, I admit it!

I can't write poetry.

But maybe someday Ill gain wit

And create wonderful comedy.
