with free verse
I can write
any way I want
not worrying about meter or rhyme
or trying to rework a line
to make it squeeze in
realizing it won’t,
and screaming at it -
who needs that?
I just don’t care
what can i say
I just want it
how i want it
and you can have it too
for the low low price
of forgetting all the rules
