2025 Bad Poet: Day 4

  • by

Today’s prompt was to write a truly bad poem. Considering I don’t consider myself to be a poet, it’s always on the cusp of my thoughts on if my poetry is bad. Or if it’s even a poem at all, or more of a stream of thought.

Anyhoo, I tried to go with cliche, corny, disconnected, and goofy in this poem, as suggested by Katie Kay Chelena in today’s prompt. And it’s accompanied by my daily drawing today.

it was a dark and stormy night
no … wait
that’s not right

once upon a time
no … damn it
fuck, it’s fine

it’s all in my head
like poetry
like a poem

wirte it down and
… what was I saying again?
what did I feel?
what did I see?
where’s the path I was trying to lead?

good? bad?
who the fuck knows
I’ll keep trying to get the thoughts out

What connects with you? How does this make you feel?
