This is what my 10 minute poem looks like.
Just because I write
doesnt make it my job.
I work late at night
that doesnt make me odd.
I sleep during the day,
and some nights go out.
For me that is ok
that is me throughout.
I write down words
and make them rhyme.
And afterwards
I kill your time.
You sit and read
and think I'm cool
Or stand and scream
that I'm a fool.
That he's too attached
to styles of past.
His lines too matched.
that he's an outcast.
I don't care
what you say.
I make it clear.
Now today.
That this is just,
me killing time.
You can adjust,
or run and hide.
