17. Thought Out Poetry © Hélène Levasseur

THE HOLY WOW POETS

THOUGHT OUT POETRY CAN BE TREMENDOUS
SOMETIMES ABOUT ANYTHING FRIVOLOUS
UNDER A SIGNATURE OR SIMPLY ANONYMOUS
POETIC PEOPLE CAN BE NERVOUS BUT FAMOUS

WE ARE CAREFUL NOT TO BECOME POMPOUS
BUT SOME POETRY HAS LEFT US RAVENOUS
THEN AGAIN THERE WILL BE A FEW TROUBLOUS
BUT IN THE END THEY’RE ALL BE WONDROUS

 THE HOLY WOW CLUB WILL BE STUPENDOUS
BUT WILL NOT ACCEPT ANYONE SCURRILOUS
LET US NOT HINDER OR BECOME TORTUROUS
NOR BECOME AN EMAILING JUNKIE SO RAUCUS

READING ONE ANOTHER’S POETRY IS DESIROUS
BECAUSE IT MAKES US SOMEWHAT JOYOUS
EVEN IF SOME ARE A LITTLE LUDICROUS
THOUGH POETS DARING AND MISCHIEVOUS
