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.

I Want

Jason Henninger

I want to vigorously exhale
a cantaloupe

I want a gaggle
of pet ornithologists

I want to woo women
with a barbershop quartet

I want to sing the Hawaiian War Chant
in German

I want to squirt blue paint
up the Dalai Lama's nose

Because no one else does
