POETRY SHOULD BE...  

Poetry should take me back to the Ninth Grade, where I met my High School Sweet Heart

Poetry should give me the courage to stand up for myself

Poetry should release the stress and mentality I have built inside of me

Poetry needs to burn the rage I have for Travanna

Poetry should drop the charges on my record for fighting in the 7th grade

Poetry should discover why people judge many blacks


Poetry should pour the love I have for singing into a theatre

Poetry should take back the hateful words I said to hurt someone's feelings

Poetry should choke the hell out of Bush for trying to take money out of the schools

Poetry should transform my body type and make me thin

Poetry should laugh at every one who never laughs

Poetry should be how ever you want it to be
