This Is Not A Poem


I didn’t know what to write today,
So I wrote this,
And tried to make it look like a poem
But it obviously isn’t a poem.

Although it may qualify as a poem,
In the eyes of some
It definitely isn’t a poem,
And the word poem is overused

In my defence, I’m not that bad,
In general,
At writing things like poems,
But this is not evidence of that.

        I might have to join in on this new art movement. Then I can brag about it, because I was there when it all began.

        If you join it officially is a movement and then we’re just a BBC4 documentary away from being sort of famous-ish…

    I’m picturing you both in black polo neck jumpers (sweaters for James’s international readers) at non-poem jam on the arts channel. Everyone in the audience is wearing your blog t-shirt …

    Avente garde satire at its finest. Get some wire rimmed half-glasses to go with that jumper, sir.

    …What? I can be American and know what a jumper is, dammit.
