Keep it simple and make it rhyme
is what he said to catch attention
Keep it simple and make it rhyme
so I told him I try that all the time
it's helpful to have sexual tension
so we fucked, and did I mention?
keep it simple and make it rhyme

When said and done
And it has all burned to the ground
When said and done
The cabal will be overrun
How don't they see? It's so profound
We'll cheer their screams when they resound
When said and done

Most of my stuff nowadays is mostly in #rondelet or #haiku path, shifting away from more complex forms.

But it still might not be an easy poem to sing.

What do you want?
Standing in the dark, peering in.
What do you want?
And when confronted, nonchalant,
though pearls of sweat form on your skin,
and shameful conscience stirs within.
What do you want?

Where is your head?
Which one of these jokers took it?
Where is your head?
When you joined up your reason fled.
So now upon their pews you sit
a litany of rot you spit.
Where is your head?
