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.

Forget a sound.

G J Barrantes

Fire burn upon the evening scape.

Undo these bonds that burrowed shallowly.

Fill the eve with wasted words,

thoughts of escape.

Blend and dissolve all that which was,

for feathers and fireflies,

buttons and buttockes.

For now,

shall never be then,

and furthermore

shall be the end.

G J Barrantes has published another poem since joining on 30/11/99. Read more of G's terrible poetry at the anthology. Here are three of G's latest works:
