Ars Poetica

A poet shouldn’t write what others want to hear, One must not feel intimidation, nor fear. A poet must write about his own experience He should capture his own life’s true essence. At nearly nineteen years of life I’ve learned, A true artist’s voice is not pleasant to be heard. A poet’s life truly is nothing to be desired, A poet doesn’t have a job, he never gets hired. Any man can live a life plain and normal, But being a poet is much more exceptional: Telling your thoughts with no care in the world, You can freely make your voice be heard!
