A poem to me is nothing but 
A deconstructed mind
Abstractions put together 
To create a simple rhyme

The sadness of a painting 
Put into many lines
Of writings that may not ever even
Stand the test of time

A fallacy, a false tale
Of emotions strung about
Like Christmas lights, all but bright
A smile or a pout

A poem is nothing more
Than clamor on a screen

But
At the end of the day

It matters not what's being said
But rather what it means.
