Creating The Perfect Poem Poem by Shaun Cronick

To create the perfect poem,
One needs to follow success.
What works in other poems,
Is simply stolen to impress.

Select key words and phrases,
Like heart god love mother and tender.
Not forgetting eye of the beholder,
Then shove all in a poetry blender.

Whisk violently for ten minutes,
Till it becomes a fine paste.
Dollop it on some parchment,
This mixture of such fine taste.

Let it dry slowly overnight,
Your plagiarised poetry process.
At dawn cast your eyes on it,
As it reads a f**king mess.
