Cryptic Lipstick

By Stephanie Sideways

Some poems are simplistic
They don't wear cryptic
lipstick
They never try to force it
If the words don't fit their corset
They may don a facade
But they never try too hard!
They're not as flat as pancakes
They are natural and are not fakes
Some work it trips and crashes
If it's wearing false eyelashes
'up do's ' can look pretentious
Wear it messy, be adventurous
It would lose all of its passion
If poems followed fashion
Whether free flow, prose or rhyme
Wear it your way, it's looks fine

Author's Note:

If its good it good, if its crap and you think it's good then maybe it is good really and it's just an opinion! Poetry is amazing in all its forms, but I do find some are just too much like hard work to get my head around !
