G'day all,

Hey its been a while. Been up to no good again writing stupid stuff. This one is still fresh and needs some fermentation me thinks> but I'll post it any way. As always feel free to comment as long as its constructive.

My Rhyme Be

Transparent words, once brilliant, are now my toss
It's order all hidden through my illiterate verbalize frost
Rhyming forms once known, turn to twisted lettered ghosts
Words, some meaningless, yet stand on my silly twitter posts
It appears all unclear to me, as I simply can't rhyme you see.

Passages of my simple words all forgotten within my mind
Turns of verse stalled, once flowing, is hidden for me to find
Written jives are my loss, those that are obvious to many literates
A helpful complement from a friend is hidden, and lost over time
These all disappear slowly from me, as I think because I can't rhyme.

Formal lines with punctuation directly end in a period of trickery
A descriptive verb disappears, and is forever hidden from me
Details are shown obvious however misleading you see
Imprisonment with multiple adjectives, I want to be freed!
Confusing to my mind, because I simply just can't rhyme see.

Daylight shines, but my mind is murky and brings me no reverence
This fog of lit, makes me half a twit, it grows never in severance
The spelling crimes sentence me to this twisted knowledge darkness
I wake with confusion my thesaurus torn to bits; I cringe in starkness!
Dictionary is lost, forced this deception, I simply have no way rhyme you see.

Gifts of confused insight, false wisdom, a verbal-nounilly, but most valuable to us all,
this a simple rhyme, no wonder its often taken for granted, mocked and ignored
Computers with word processing advancements, now give me this second chance
Programs dance in their trickery, how can I now rhyme within a simple sentence?
Oh my dear stanza, I thank you, however I could never just rhyme simply.

Hey Longman ... don't be so hard on yourself. Murky minded ...I know the feeling. Also, I don't know what I'd do without the old thesaurus. I enjoyed reading the poem.
