what is the point of being as they say
so "highly polished" that you roll frictionlessly away?
if you ask me the best works of literature are flawed
so why not leave polish to housemaids and God
when i see in the guidelines that polish is needed
a sad kind of nightcrawler feeling is seeded
inside the wet earth of my soul, where I wonder
what kind of a poem leaves no room for a blunder?
you think that you want highly polished, but do you?
the power of poetry lets me see through you!
you'd rather make sure poems are quickly rejected
than bury them in you to be ressurected
a real poem is gritty! it makes people feel!
well ok I guess there are more kinds of real
but my kind is better so why not give in
to be less than polished is hardly a sin
