Jealous Rhymester
I see this poem
plastered on the Internet,
a blatant “HELP! I lost my dog-
Please call 555-542-3981” appeal
for attention.
And I am jealous.
I cannot make my words rhyme
or employ
the vulgar vernacular
bleeding
from those lines.
So I sit and seethe,
green and
hypocritical
because what more does a poet want
than to be
envied?
