I hate you

because your poems end in rhyme

your prose is feeble and weak

when i read your words

i wish your hear you voice

spoken to me

the passion

the anger

the pain

of a poet

for whom do we write these words?

a significant other

who's pants we wish to delve

or the demon on my shoulder

the shiver of my spin

my skeleton shudders at the thought

Ginsberg doesn't ring a bell?

I wear black.

because i am in mourning

of the arts you killed

a eulogy is in order

for the younger generation

grow duller the as they age

mind blunted

blunted

like the blade of wit for which i weep

no longer lines cut like blades

but punch lines mashed up with terrible rhymes

i've never heard a poet

but a comedian bard upon the stage

i wish to laugh but instead i lament

i cry for the youth walk the pavement

eyes turned inward

ears sealed shut

little white buds

to fill walls of their skull with more endless rhyme

convincing them that

this ****

THIS **** RIGHT HERE

RIGHT HERE IS ART

so please, dont let me into my zone

for i'll take that mic from your hands

and shoot your down

drop to your knees

and die

for not an artist lives

for the future

my future

our future

is thoroughly ******
