I’ve been writing poems lately, and it’s making me feel like a teenager again, because I wrote poems when I was a teenager. Why am I writing poems? Well, because I have to, for a class. But I finished those poems and somehow I kept writing poems! I’ve been writing a poem every day! Are they real poems? Idk! What are real poems? They’re my poems. So I guess they’re real. Ok, on with the show! The “show” being a poem that may not really be a poem but is probably a poem. I’ve been working on this one for a few weeks, but it probably needs more work. Oh well. I’m still gonna share it.

I hope you enjoy my maybe-a-poe…
