Why must a poet
Think deeply
And show
Great wisdom
In all of their works?

It is assumed that
Even if a poet is
Writing about
His/her moldy sandwich,
Or a freckle on a
Friend's hand,
something profound
will appear from
in between the words.

But we all know what happens,
when you assume,
Right?

For example,
if I want to write
about how you can
never ever get the
last drop of
Arizona's Raspberry Iced Tea
out of a 460 ml can¦
is it required
that I have
to include how
that symbolizes
the greedy want of a humans,
just so all the other
caffeine-addicted critics
can bob their heads
and say,
"Whoa" and
"Totally Deep" and
"Niice!"?

well,
WHAT IF I
DON'T WANT TO BE DEEP!!!!

Sure it's nice to be considered
an intellectual,
But what if
I just happen to enjoy
my stupid moments?

But what if,
I enjoy being human
along w/ all
the other mortals?

What happens if I
Don't know all the
Answers?

What if I enjoy
writing poems,
that express my joy
in my fuzzy blue
bath mat,
w/out any hidden meanings?

And since I'm
running out of steam
I figure I should close this
rant/poem/declaration
with something that fits
my wild weird way.
Maybe afterwards people will think
"What the hell was that?!"
and maybe one of my friends
or perhaps a random stranger
will say,
"WTF, mate?"

And I will say,
"That was a rant,
a declaration of what I feel.
And if you didn't get it,
that's okay,
'cause neither did I"
