Freedom is Unregulated

Poems with nothing to say

express it in another way.

They may use rhythm and rhyme,

but don’t use it every time.

Some poets call this free verse.

It isn’t free; but even worse;

it is easy to forget

and its color is violet.

Some readers call it a crime

because the endings never rhyme.

There’s nothing it can mean

if you can keep the verses clean.

There’s really nothing to it

and i do not want to do it.
