You people ruined poetry

Diluted with aesthetics

Filtered through others ideologies

Watered Down with fakeness

 

modern day poets

don’t deserve to sit next to power

don’t deserve to be recognized

 

I am a modern day poet

yet at the same time

I’m not actually a poet at all

 

Sorry

I really am sorry

I apologize

 

I have failed you with my aesthetic

I filtered my work through ideologies

I’ve watered down real life with fakeness
