Ok, I’m ready.
How should I write this poem?
. . .    
     Already lost focus, really?
Should I just write another philosophical poem
And regret it the next day?
     Why not?
Nah, not in the mood.
Should I just close my eyes
and describe the first object I can think of?
     That’s an idea, I guess
An apple!
I got it.
     Not everything is creative
Ok, ok,
An apple is red
An apple is juicy
     Really inspiring me
Man, I’m bad
     Deleting
To the rhythm of Adele, nice

Should I just be that guy
who goes to the 30 writing prompts?
     Your teacher is going to be so proud
Ok
Number 1,
Too lazy
Number 2,
I’m not 5, thank you
Number 3,
What? This is not even english
Number 4.
Too typical
Number 5.
How do you even think of that?
    . . .
    Number 30.
If I could do that I wouldn’t be here, god!
That was depressing
Thanks Kelli Russell Agodon
     Can’t even pronounce it
I’m stuck
Another homework notice, come on
     Doesn’t even realize he is already done
Wow, poetry is cool!
     There you go
Wait this is poetry?
     Sure
But it doesn’t have any meaning whatsoever
     I mean, I guess it doesn’t have to
No metaphors,
No rhymes, no nothing
     Well maybe you should put some metaphors
No, quote on quote, beauty,
not even funny,
     Yeah, maybe you should change a little
I don’t even care
This counts
