Question

*****

ONTO THE HEAP

In retrospect,

I do regret

asunder gone

experiments,

Time machines,

recycled dreams,

Twisted, broke and bented things

In my notes,

I must have wrote,

at least a thousand times,

Your toy boat,

it will not float,

without rhythm and rhyme…

Ta Dah!

Answer 2

"Hi!",

I agree a boat that doesn't have rhythm, Isn't a good boat to be SAIL upon.  : )

WELL DONE!

Answer 5

Float my boat

bented fine

Answer 6

And here all these people go telling me that poetry doesn't have to rhyme. Your last line has shattered everything I've done. I'M LOST, ALONE, ADRIFT!!! And laughing my head off. This is very beautiful, but with your subtle undertone of humor (at least to me, who likes to laugh at everything). Thank you.

Answer 7

I made a toy boat of the paper I wrote my first pome on,

it didn't float.
