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.

Test Poem

Michael Reed

Beeeeeeeeep!

This poem is a test.

This poet is conducting a test
of the Emergency Poetry System.

The poets in your area
in voluntary cooperation with the FCC, VBP,
and federal, state and local authorities
have developed this system
to keep you informed in the event of an actual poem.

If this had been an actual poem
the attention signal you just read
would have been followed by
a bunch of gibberish and non sequiturs
likely most of which you would not have understood.

This concludes this test
of the Emergency Poetry System.

Michael Reed has published 2 more terrible poems since joining on 25/5/07. Read more of Michael's terrible poetry at the anthology. Here are three of Michael's latest works:
