Gerald the Writer

Poetry, essay, and prose, oh my!

Posted on January 28, 2011 by Jerry

Don’t take that poetic tone with me!

Put that metaphor down and back away slowly.

A little less alliteration, leave letters lie.

About those similes, they are like, like, like…identical twins.

Don’t talk to me in meters and rhyme,

I’m not in the mood, out of time.

Give it straight,

because I have a headache.
