I Have No Muse
Just write down one poem each day
What could be easier, you say
Just put down your thoughts
Remember the shoulds and the oughts
But I say dispense with the rules
Maybe iambs are simply for fools
All this meter and rhyme
I haven’t the time
I have some hot soup
In the crockpot

love how the last stanza upsets the perfect rhyme and how “crock” is part of the last word
Don’t know about the crockpot as muse, but soup can definitely spark ideas! Enjoyed the playfulness.
I Love it!!!! And I agree, dispensing with the rules is the fun part!
