<p>I can’t really write poetry</br>

I honestly think I hate poetry</br>

There’s something weird about being honest or genuine</br>

I can code html, I can write fiction</br>

But the second I’m honest, all fails</br>

Perhaps it’s because my heart was always sealed</br>

In one-hundred-thousands layers of plastic wrap</br>

Put onto styrofoam and sold</br>

For five dollars at a shop.</br>

See, I was going for a metaphor</br>

But it made no sense</br>

That’s why I’ve decided, as silly as it may be</br>

To never write poetry.</br>
