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.

Maturity Levels in Nature

Slim Walter DeTurtlevain

How baby-like is a rock
To simply sit and never talk
It cannot put on its own sock
It simply sits, and it is mock (ed)

How childish is a stone
Never knowing all that's known
Just existing on its own
Never once has that stone grown

How grown-up is a tree
Being just what it should be
Tree-ing just as it should tree
How I wish a tree was me
