The Rhyme Scheme

By Vinu K Saji

I hate it when these poets try so hard to rhyme

Their work should be declared a crime

Their pathetic attempts to write verse

That slips off the tongue like watercourse

Them and their stupid, annoying poetic licenses

Creating words to fool all the gullible mices

Their treacherous use of the simile

They are just like Foxes, you'll see

What I view, though, with most aversion

Is their altogether alarming alternation of alliteration

All of them are hypocrites, that's clear to see

Why can't they all be more like me?
