Poetry Is Weird
My mind is always racing
It never seems to settle
From one thought to the next
Always something random
But usually making sense
To me, but no one else
Hundreds maybe thousands
Even millions of ideas
Hiding inside my mind
Waiting for a random, perfect time
To be noticed and acknowledged
Is what my thoughts all want
Like right now
I’m writing about my thoughts
While thinking about my writing
That’s just wow
Sometimes my attention is short
But my thoughts are always long
For the most part
This might be the middle
Or maybe it’s the start
But I just came up with the title
Of this great work of art
It might be confusion to you
If it’s beautiful to me
And that’s all that matters
That and almost everything
About the title of this thing
It really is the truth
You see poetry
Is really weird cause
Of what it can become or do
Great poets like Emily Dickinson
Or Langston Hughes
Or Shakespeare and Poe
Even Henry Longfellow
And every other poet
They all lived years ago
But they still are remembered
And discussed and admired
mostly because of the inspiration to inspire
So try not to let whatever thoughts you think be ignored.
