I think poems are fun
When prose is a pain
Because poems are word puzzles
And so much less plain.
-
It's all combinations,
As words twist and play,
To find the right sequence
That wins you the game.
-
Like unlocking a cupboard
Or like spinning a cube
Or like dancing with muscles
Or stimming to sooth,
-
I think for some puzzles
the dopamine hit
Comes after each line that
We manage to get.
