For a philosopher
It hurts to define poetry
Prescribing metaphor
Simile rhyme sharp archetypes of song
To define poetry is to step on a caterpillar
Pluck away wings
As a torturer will destroy
Better to remain silent or to utter
A poem is a ploy
A poem is a toy
A poem is
Alive
A philosopher finds no joy
Qualifying a poem good or bad
Better to praise
To say "Wow those are
The exact perfect words"
Does a poem have meaning
Should a poem just be
LOL
A poem transcends should
A poem knocks on wood
A poem is sweet as devil's food
The philosopher who writes of poetry
The philosopher who writes of poetry
Ends with a couplet knowingly
Or a menage a trois in the Bo Tree
