Post your own poetry!
Here's one of my masterpieces, circa 1971, age 9:

Ode to the Neighbors' Kitten

I know a little kitty
She has cute and shining eyes
Her little paws are pretty
When she sees us, she cries.

Miss kitty's tongue is very rough
Her ears go up and down
Her teeth are very tough
On her head is a crown.

1. Awwww
That's good

One of mine from way back when

Find a penny
Pick it up
Throw it away
It ain't worth a fuck

2. BOOK...circa 1967 (high school years)
Book.
I am sorry I must pass you by
As I ramble among the shelves.
You are not tall and slim as the others are,
You are squat and tattered.

Interesting, yes, but I must pass you by.

You are not on the recommended reading list.
