I set out now
To write a poem about
Something that’s never been
Poeticized before.
Hmm, what shall it be about?
What hasn’t already been done?
Maybe dancing gerbils?
The chemical properties of spam?
Star Wars monkeys?
Telephone snow?
The powers of good and awesome?
Monochrome TV?
Ice cream homework?
Alien game shows?
Electric underwear?
I’m starting to think,
At this point,
I should stop writing poetry
And go invent some of that stuff.
