edit fit

love me like i belong

i do not fit

but here i sit

and refuse to be removed

countless times

you’ve read it

what need more

is there to edit?

i mess up the flow

 have no profound meaning to add or show

adjectives pretend to be my friends

but honestly are much too clingy

and those obnoxious adverbs affect me quite adversely

but do not…do not replace me

with those presumptuous ellipses

i do not rhyme

and have no rhythm

but i have been here so very long

so just love me

like i belong

    Actually it wasn’t fun at all…7:30am class, very dry and optional to boot!…, But learning grammar in linguistics class was =)

    If only I had learned grammar in a poetry class… perhaps I would have found it more interesting.
