Poetry "Perception" 1986

Perception

A simple poem to waste my time,
is what you want, you say.
I write a poem, and it seems fine,
but then its judged and unjust way.

Its judged by rules which change its text,
which makes me wonder, what comes next?
For poetry is one fine art,
A poets thoughts, put into rythmatic parts.

But s a song changes beat,
Or how a dancer moves her feet.
A poem is the writers thoughts
whether right or wrong
He writes how he wants.
