                   Poems

           alliteration, personification,
        are poets trying to confuse the nation?
             irony, conflict, climax,
         writing poems is like eating wax.
              character, metaphor,
        reading poems is even a larger bore.
           narrative, lyric and sonnets,
people who write these walk around wearing pretty pink bonnets.
          foreshadowing, setting, edding,
         what messages are poets sending?
              mood, simile, satire,
              every poet is a liar.
           writing endings ain't no ball
           so I'm not writing one at all!
