Should thine rhymes be a labyrinth and divulge such complexities that one cant comprehend
Or should they flow and elegance as if written from Shakesperian pen
Or should they be simpler and have no tambour
And use little words that we can understand faster
No-blunt-short they should be
Without those silly metaphors and similes
Or should they articulate messages veiled amongst words and phrases
And have us concealed in our thoughts for ages
Should they be pretty and make us smile with their giddy jokes
Or ugly and make us frown because the truth makes you choke
Better yet happy they should be like ice cream on a summers day
Or sad like a breakup on February's special day
Whatever path you choose to believe
A poem not meant for you are words fit for me
Let A poem be and let it words breath
