Whatever happened to poems rhyming?
You cannot tell me that trend is now dying?
Whatever happened to the artist's demise?
Of finding a word to match the last line?
Now all I see are thesaurus-y words,
Like really? Whoever has heard of "demurred?"
I get it, it's new, it's hip, it's "in"
But to not rhyme in a poem should be considered a sin.
Get off this fad before it's too late.
Poems should rhyme, there is no debate.
