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.

Desperate for attention

Megan Shepherd

I stayed up all night
One job to the next
idled time in-between
Too tired to sleep
Too afraid to dream.

Sweet sounds of Motown days
Tease me into a romantic haze

Amidst a concrete jungle
A sea of no love

Smog riddled, polluted
Black winged dove.

Megan Shepherd has published since joining on 30/11/99. Read more of Megan's terrible poetry at the anthology. Here are three of Megan's latest works:
