Oops

Oh Shit.
I forgot how to write poetry.
There used to be a way I could
string
words
down
the
page
so they said
exactly what I wanted them to say

What a
time
to forget
how to write poetry —
It’s poetry
MONTH

Damn
that’s bad timing
especially because I have big things to say
writing them though?
that feels whiny
annoying
trite
stupid
because
what kind of
string
of
words
could
possibly articulate
what I
want
to
say?
