Crap

 

I am an expert poet

At writing useless crap

I guess it is because

Because it just so hap -

 

Happens that I've had no

Train in culture stuff

Poetry? Just one year

Still round-edge sorta rough

 

But hey? You could just like me

(Or flush me down the sink)

More of Matthews crap again?

I don't care what you think

 

You're asking “Why do you Don

Identify yourself

In a rhyme you're writing

Why not stay on the shelf?” -

 

“Where you can stay anonymous

Just write, look on, observe?”

I ask this question of myself

No answer my mind serves

 

I know I can write strange-like

At times it's quite bizarre

I can't help what comes out my mind

Cos that's the way I are
