I am poetry
I am the strict structure you have to follow
Or none at all.
I am the repetition
You use to form syllable variation.
I am the simile
You whimsically string together
to show comparison between two unlike things
I am the words 'as' or 'like'
Like rain tears poured from his eyes
I am the alliteration
The repetition of the letter B
To be is to be alive
To be alive is to mind
I am the abbreviation
The nation of YOLO
I am poetry.
