Contemporary Poetics from Plume Ruiner by Plum Wooer

here’s what I get when I choose to ignore them
music and food and wine and boredom
their eyes will be the first to go
because they only see the names they know
but hey, whatever happened to just taking a walk
and living entire decades on pause
I think I want that for myself
don’t write about your mental health because

contemporary poetics
you got me in a jam
contemporary poetics
get yourself a company man

thank you for sending your terrible poems
I hope they end up in very good homes
but where is your ivy pedigree
and why don’t you pay the submission fee
well I dont think I want to play those games
you suck my best lines with your fangs
and put them on your wordpress site
your villanelle is my kryptonite because

contemporary poetics
you got me in a jam
keep it light, once more it’s
contemporary poetics
get yourself a company man
