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.

Distant Cars

Justin W. Grover

the distant whir
of invisible cars
moving down unseen roads
taking us to people
places or things
that we’ve never been shown

all the time spent
looking for something more
and what we’ve pushed aside
the things we try to keep
fading away
the stars we wish to be

as something moves
up into the half light
and the closer we get,
it’s further that we fall
do we feel free
from invisible cars
