In regard to writing a poem,

the options are merely endless.

There are so many things to say,
that it is easy to digress.

 

It is difficult to write a poem
and to make sure that what I’m showing
is all formatted correctly
when my mind is always flowing.

 

I ask: “what rhymes with this?”
Or “what would flow with that?
It’s limiting to write a poem
when these formats hold me back.

 

Writing a poem with creativity
requires my ideas to traverse
onto a piece of paper accordingly…
Screw that, I’m writing free verse!
