Poetry can be freeing
But we bind it into rules
# 1 Deep Themes
#2 Syllables
#3 Number of Lines
#4 Rhyme schemes
#5 Pentameters
#6 Meaningful Syntax
No wonder people are scared of it
How are we supposed to be creative
when poetry is bound by too many rules
What if poetry was just some words
Playing their own game on the page
Because I think…
Poetry is an art form
Bound only by graphite scratches
Poetry is a canvas
Ready for carefree strokes
Poetry is a dance floor
Poised for grandiose movements
Poetry is a plant
Awaiting sunlight’s break
Poetry is a being
Struck with inquisitive nature
And last but not least…
Poetry is a character
Taking off on the next adventure
