O
The Who
belted out adolescent
stress
through edgy
guitar riffs
like they still had
pimples
long after they
became
famous.

And me
I
I
often forget
that
I'm
I'm
supposed to be
becoming
a
Man
or something
like that.

My hands are bleeding surely:
my guitar pick isn't my fingers
but soon I'll write these nonsensicals
in blood. But nobody should scream
out for that. Nobody should buy
my words like rock-albums.
Nobody should ask Who
is he and Who
am I because

me
I
I
often forget
that
I'm
I'm
supposed to be
becoming
a
Man
or something
like that.

While
The Who
O
The Who
belt out
out adolescent
stress
through edgy
guitar riffs

pimples
long after  
becoming
famous

like Who?
Awesome band.

The who
Write it for yourself

The what
Write your life
Your love
Your hate
Your feelings

The why
Write because you want to
Not for the *trending
tag
Or the liked heart

The when
Write whenever you want
Whenever the emotions invading
Your
Mind
Are so strong that you just
Can't
Breathe anymore

The where
Write on walls
On the hearts
Of loved ones
On paper
On keys of a computer
On your arms
And
Legs
Anywhere words will fit
Poetry is not to be labeled,
So don't try.
Just write.
