I'm sick of amateur short lines,
tongues that mingle and limbs
that seep together in unison.
Tense and tacit moments
between two silly lovers
just bore me now.

I don't want any more "and"s
or wonky enjambment
that just jars a poem's
supposedly beautiful flow.

Abstract adjectives
are too blasé,
overused and trite -
especially in lists
of simplistic three.

I would love to read
a structured poem,
some clever metaphor
and a little real love.

Empty sex poems
need not apply.

a/n: I want to read something real.
