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.

Genetic Diatribe by Emily Reeve

Robert Hawkins

Four nucleotides.
For you the Big Links.
Adenine,guanine,cytosine, thymine.
Perfection in a binary computer.
All your on and off switches.
In you man controls, can extol.
But it closes the show.
Primordial soup from Big Bang.
Molecules thin.
Ten billion in a human hair.
Picture a book.
An encyclopedia perhaps.
Chapters one through twenty-three.
Now the letters are base pairs.
Of the spiral helix DNA.
Genetic letters used in combination.
That made you typical infinity.
Your human book was written.
You dear reader are alive.
As you read this.
What say.
Drop this reading for now.
Go have a good day.
Make the rest of the day count.
rlh

note; Don't you feel better?
Now you know.
Figured it out huh?
We had every confidence in you.
All the way.
You would figure out.
Your smarter than Bobby.
Damn bum.
