'no more Poetry'

'No more Poetry' timothy r gates, 6/24/2010

Slapped
capped
mapped
slip a line,
rhymed refrain
in the place of
one's-story
contextualized metaphor
subtle euphemism.
Tapped
zapped
crapped
skip a rope,
woven hemp
tied to spacial
minimalist-stories
in your face
no need to micromanage.
minimize
people
logos
words
syntax
commas,
period –
no more semi-colons, or
Poetry.
