I Hate Poems

28 February 2006


I hate poems
I hate the ones
that start the same
I hate all those poems
of one word to name

This act of repeating
one word several at a time
I hate those kind of poems
even if this was not a crime

I hate poems
I hate each line
I hate those poems
the ones that waste my time

This reign of repeat
that sensation lost in accord
I hate poems - since in life
hate was a word to ill afford


“No man can serve two masters: for either
he will hate one, and love the other; or else
he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon. [Worldliness]”
Matthew 6: 24 KJV
[word in brackets added]


a poet who cares

Sounds like you're going to be a Huan Yi fan.....

I do know what you mean, and this poem rang bells for me. As I said to someone recently, the same poem again and again, the same voice again and again....
