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.

Will Sanchez

i want to go to alaska
and be a fisherman
of crabs

they tell me jesus
was a fisher of men
i think he had
a good writing staff
i only have myself
writing bullshit

everytime they fall
on the table
i think of piercing
a knife through their shell
into their heart
cutting off their legs
putting the legs into bowling water
for eight-ten minutes
until the get a nice red
that's when you want to pull them out
and filling myself
with the king
and all the color taste and sound
of the nowhere
sea,
lost in a desert of water
and nothing but madness

my blood desires for me
to go down to mexico
and be pancho villa
fight revolutionize and kill a
lot who will stand in the way
of hope and new

the president's half white half black
i love this melding of culture
he is me standing to do the right thing
and i hope he keeps doing it
no matter how hard they try
to bring down his spirit
