How do you write a poem?


how do you write a poem?
do we make many rhymes?
or mix words and match lines?
and is it as hard as rocket science?

is the diction vital?
or should i feel the title?
or should i find inspiration?

well, writing a poem
is neither an art
nor a short story
and is not worth any personal glory.

poems are raw thoughts
mixed with beautiful words.
to release something from within

writing a poem is all about observing,
the world within you,
the world around you.

if you want to learn it,
this is how you do it.
