Analysis of You burned my poem



I don't really like sitting typing
A necessary evil
Shaping the words to the right sequence
Putting thoughts down just to make sense

There are a few poems out there
Thrown into cyberspace
That I'll never get back again
That have lost the race

I don't want to sit here long
Sitting on the pot,
I'll see if I can put this one up
What has it forgot

About this poem

I'm about to write a poem here. I have confidence in mmy abilities, I was trained for this. But I've been here typing for hours now, But none can read my efforts Cause, then, when the poem was done It went to cyberspace

She called, she's coming with Lancelot, They're coming right by, But, of course she never showed Gravel in my eye more…
