ENOUGH

ENOUGH

managed to scrape together
enough time
to write this poem
which none
of you are going to read
I could not be more convinced

the days of carving, shaping,
wordsmithing lines
together

seem so
long gone, irrelevant now,

sweet for the stuff
they wrote in
a bygone age
Medieval, Renaissance,
Romantic, Victorian
and
mind-
bending modern
or shamelessly
meta and (self) reflexive
decidedly
post-modernist
