The Meta-Poem
“That’s not a poem”
Some might say
“You don’t have any metrics”
Yes, I don’t have metrics
They are not sestinas
They are not villanelles
They don’t even rhyme
All I do is follow the words
One came first, then other follows
I just put them together
No metrics, not rules
Metrics turns words into statistics
Break their soul
Turn them into numbers
And take away their meaning
