I don't get why
Poetry has to be so sweet
So delicate
All about love
And all the sweetest things of life
Don't poets know that life
Has another side?
It has a side of metal
Hate is loved
Love is hated
People are violent
Absurdly negative
And harmful to themselves
And everyone else
Death is celebrated
Life, not so much
That's the Dark Side of Poetry.
Poetry has to be so sweet
So delicate
All about love
And all the sweetest things of life
Don't poets know that life
Has another side?
It has a side of metal
Hate is loved
Love is hated
People are violent
Absurdly negative
And harmful to themselves
And everyone else
Death is celebrated
Life, not so much
That's the Dark Side of Poetry.
