Paradox.

By Sky Singer

i tried to put rhyme

into every line,

let poetic perfection

seep through.



but you lingered

and hindered

every line from

my pen



so i thought

and i pondered

and scribbled

again




but how......

how do i write a poem

for a poet?

    You just talk to them. Poetry to poets, is life. Everyday things, and everything about every day. I miss talking to you, you goofy gal. This was good.
