To rhyme or not to rhyme: that is the question
Bad Poetry (TM) will always answer, "Rhyme,
Unless Metre, or some other suggestion
Distinguishes the poem from prose this time."
However bad or good, the reader knows
Bad Poetry (TM) was meant for verse, not prose.
Giggling as I read your poem, yes - poem!
ReplyDeletePS I actually tried both grasped and gasped when composing my funny poem, glad you caught the "what if I used the other word, instead, Helen?"

ReplyDeleteAgreed...Bad Poetry (TM) is this web site's label for what I write. I can't judge it. I depend on reader reactions for a clue how good or bad it is. All I can say is whether it has some sort of poetic form however subtle, in which case it may be Bad but it's Poetry, or has no form, in which case it may be Good but it's Prose.
