I Am Not A Poet

I am not a poet

I just write words that rhyme

Simple stupid things like:

Time and dime.

I am not a poet

That thought is a mistake.

I can't make beauty and landscapes, words on a page.

I am not a poet, 

and I never ever will,

One big reason is: Poets have skill.

I am not a poet,

I'm just trying to rhyme.

A bored little boy,

Trying to waste his time.

I am not a poet, 

That thought is a dream.

One way to describe me would be:

Death or a scream.

I am not a poet,

Deep down you know it,

A poet can flow,

and that I can't show.

If you think I'm a poet,

You sure the hell don't know,

The only thing I can fit on paper is scribbles, and it's gross.

No trees

No snow

No leaves

To blow.

No sky

No clouds

Can't make no one cry, nor frown.

I am not a poet

Maybe in a fantasy.

In a different nation

Or even different reality.

I am only a poet, in my imagination,

Throw me on the tracks at a trainstation,

Cause I ain't a poet,

And I ain't faking, hating, or mistaken.

I'm stating facts,

And I can prove it.

Yeah, I write poems...

But I am not a poet.

                        Conclusion : You don't have to be a poet to write poetry.

                        Anyway, I like your poem and you do have a skill in poetry. Thank you!

                            A most interesting view. I always heard that if it sounds like a duck and it looks like a duck it`s a duck.

                            • Mase ♪

                              Thanks Soren, you made me laugh. I believe that with ducks. But with poets; If it sounds like a poet, and it looks like a poet, it's not a poet. Lol

                              Apart from being noble and honorable one of the main characteristics of a true poet is modesty, and that you are poet.
                              I very much enjoyed your poem.
