Not a Poem

Poetry
In particular
Free verse poetry
Does not make sense
That is, to me anyway.

Feelings
Or emotions
In literary work
Distinctive style or rhythm
Possess a quality of beauty.

Phonaesthetics
Sound symbolism
In place of
A prosaic ostensible meaning
I simply miss the concept.

Poetry
Communicates meanings
In wonderful ways
To a large audience
That does not include me.

Which is actually kind of sad.

I’ll have a Happy Friday anyway.
