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.

Good Poet

An armed policeman asked for my ID
For no apparent reason, nor explained.
As I for one did not wish to be shot,
I held my drivers' license to his face.

He looked at me with palpale distain
And told me that "your card's not good enough.
I need to see your passport please, young man."
And that's when things started to get rough.

"I shall not be dictated in this way," I said.
"I do no see what I have done wrong.
You asked me who I was and sought my proof,
and I provided you with it, you mong.

"This is a fucking disgrace", I continued,
Now riled to the point of distraction.
"How dare you fascists assume me a liar -
I demand your apology and correction."

The cop again asked that I show him my passport,
to which I defiantly confirmed "I shan't."
He looked at me and sighed, and finally said
"Then stop trying to get on the ferry, you cunt."
