Bad Poetry
by Arella B. (Grade 12)

Life is kinda like poetry:
Not good poetry. Bad poetry.
It doesn't flow smoothly or rhyme where you want it to.
It's choppy and immature.
It rarely makes any sense.
An empty canal on a late spring day;
From lover, to "friends" to painful silence

I live bad poetry and celebrate good poetry
And I write a lot of bad poetry.
