the poem we can`t write

The poem we can't write
 
Make it clear poetry is redundant
 poets write verses packed in wool
 only other poets can understand,
they are usually about love and peace
but no one is listening.
 There are of course nationalistic poets
who advocates war they are listening to
and often recited by politicians.
Negro spiritual music called the blues
are the poetry of the oppressed the rest of
us write pedestrian poems are forgotten.
So forget that you can write poetry
that is not based on the suffering of the soul.
