like a poet

like a poet,

I was the harbringer

of ethos

bringing back metaphor

to the cycle of calculated reasons

 

like a poet,

i bring back to the table

my decapitated hand, singed of its

chains of allusions,

stained of cheap-ass pen

i tried to use to write a Modern poem

 

like a poet

   i wear a beret

 

                      sometimes

 

like a poet,

  i'm a narcissist that my head is millions of balloons

keeping my mental flow

in Cloud 9 but someone dare to climb

from a beautiful line

but I sai----

         "WHO THE FUCK SAYS I'M A BUFFOON, DON'T KILL MY

 

H      I      G      H

 

UP                                                                        

in the sky it's dangerous to fell in love with onself because sometimes i read my poems and it sucks and i'm insecure, a myth to every pore- me a poet- was just a great decor in christmas trees where i hid my insecurities over similes and pretentious metaphors and

 

like a poet,

   I digress to prosaic lines

because in life, there is no rhyme.

Repetition over life is just criminal in nature

 

and

like a poet,

i think everything is wrong.

like ending a poem is wrong.

unless words paints beautiful meanings

10 words long

 

and like a poet,

i failed to shut up and just write

THE END.

 

This poem is about: 
Me
