Very Bad Poetry

Welcome to the last refuge for the world's worst poetry.

It's difficult to understand how, in this age of information, poems that merely miss the mark can be tossed into the cold world to fend for themselves, only to whither and be forgotten.

Please help us to help them to help us.

A One-Size Hat

DaeSu O

Asserts my hat glumly: One size fits all.
A hollow promise, really.
But how hollow must it be to fit my hollow head?
Which after all stands in that promise's stead.

Today like warmed granite
Stoically refuses the head my hat.
Unperturbed in burning, oblivious in baldingness,
The staunch resistance wavers never for a moment!

That is why I am hatless at the zoo.
