A Novel Poem

This poem was inspired by one of the weirder takes on writing I’ve seen in a Facebook group

By Atomic HistorianPublished 6 months ago 1 min read

How absurd

What a novel idea

To think that your idea can’t be both

What poetic injustice

To think we can’t do both

What kind of host

Lives with this parasite in their mind

    Read Pernoste & Dahl's "In the Minuses". They did both simultaneously & incredibly well. Even my wife enjoyed it, & she doesn't like poetry.

  • Lol, did you choose every single tag? 🤣🤣🤣 You're so funny! Anyway, loved your poem!
