Middle School:  Third Place

 

 

I HATE POETRY

 

I hate poetry so much,

It hurts my brain.

Even the simpler poems,

Like those about rain.

 

Yes I hate poetry,

What’s it to you?

It is so boring,

What can I do?

 

Oh, I despise poetry,

Even at lunch.

Complexity kills me,

Do I complain too much?

 

Next time I have to write poetry,

I’ll plan an excuse.

Maybe I’ll get out of it,

Oh, what’s the use?
