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.

Will Sanchez

i found a very bad poem
someone had left behind
on a park bench today
i understand why they left it:

'There
were three
VHS tapes,
among those other sorts of things that young families do keep,
in the cardboard box
that
I bought cheaply
from the thin lady
in the lawn chair.

And I watched
them all
on
my
curduroy couch, and I
did fall
in
love with
(and they did all contain)
the little girl in the over-sized striped shirt
singing,
'tra la la'.


'Tra la la'."
