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.

Emily Reeve

i very nearly almost
wrote a different poem
it was about all of the
annoying habits i have
like rarely bothering
with puncuation for example
and humming childrens songs

i very nearly almost
flipped out on a woman
who ive never encountered
when she wasnt complaining
even though she knows theres
nothing i can do for her
'cept be on her whipping post

i very nearly almost
got lost in my mind
'cause its better than
dealing with other people
their spastic kids and their inability to deal with the reality of $.30 fines

i very nearly almost
cried three times today
im tired and burned out
and i need a good rest
so ive got the princess bride
and a bottle of wine and i
will be fine in the morning
