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

in the time between beginning
and end
there's not much
just sitting hanging around

they tell me theres war on tv
but i never see it
my friend told me
war's different than
what you think
it is
his older brother is a veteran

i know a satanist
at school
i think he's a fool
for even believing in god
and
all those stupid things
he said
so people thought
he was smart
he's like a lot of people
who say and are so many ways
than just being natural
and its always easy to fool a fool
even fools fool themselves

my uncle hung himself
from what my mom told me
when i was just a little kid
my neighbor shot himself
from what i heard of the gunshot
when i was in my room last year

im generally not interested anymore
about things
because it's all
really boring

i just want to watch some baseball
but my brother doesn't want to go
because its all a metaphor on power
i told him
well you can learn something for class
no
he says
its not like that at all brother

i have learned to sigh
i'm fifteen and LA
seems like the only way
the world goes
