I tried to write a clever poem about self image vs external perception. The effort felt like shitting LEGO so I read it to my husband. He's an engineer and even he couldn't discover a shape in the bricks. When in doubt write it out. But don't expect poetry.
When poems fail…

Well, this is a fun bit of poetry with a good message. Its important to remember its okay to right a pile of crap. You don’t have to share it. You can try to polish it. Whatever you do at least you wrote something!

Be nice if I could get the right homophone written down at times too!

A most valiant attempt at self reflective poetry

It wasn’t terribly valiant. The attempt at the original poem (which I didn’t share) was valiant. This was simply a frustrated scrawl. But thanks.

It ain’t that easy to write rhymned trash,
I tried damn hard, felt constipated
So I thought, I’d give a bash
Passed oblong blocks, disarticulated.
The mirror reflects an Oz-Chinese
How others see me matters not.
My taste buds crave a pie and peas
I’m happy to accept my lot
