The Secret Recipe

I compose my poems with my scattered rhythms
using a cauldron of words like making a peanut butter
sandwich
with cheese.

Poetry does not
accentuate superiority,
or emphasize strict rules of
rhymes and meters,
Or incomprehensible metaphors
To make your brain suffers,
Remember, poetry is not like our society.

It lets souls speak
and unfurls deepest fears
to help you to listen
not just to hear
your inner self.

That is a true poetry,
albeit no poetic meters
no rhymes,
or composed of absolute meters
or absolute rhymes,
or use repetitive mundane words
and peanut butter sandwich (don't forget the cheese)
as a metaphor.

What makes your poetry
a poetry
is your deepest
soul
(perhaps with a tad of peanut butter sandwich with cheese?)
