Poetry

By Rose Bence

 

Writing poetry is hard.

                                            No, it isn’t.

How would you know?

                                           Because it’s like breathing.

No, it isn’t, there are rules. You can’t throw words down.

                                            Forget the rules. You’ll never write thinking about them.

But that’s what makes it poetry!

                                            Are you sure about that?

…What is poetry?

                                             I told you, breathing.
