You Want to be A Poet?

by Nicole M. - Gemini

So you want to be a poet, huh?
Well here is what you'll need
Enough depression
To even make Barney cry.
An attitude like no other
Cause I don't want to hear your whining
As much empathy as it takes
So you don't care about the human race
No expectations of being famous
Since we're only appreciated 
After we're deceist.
A rhyming book
Because that's what really makes 
Poetry great.
A lesbian affair here and there
You want to keep the men interested
Some suicide attempts
Or atleast a couple of thoughts
That's how you know you're really deep.
So this is what you really need
To be a poet, HA!

Reason for writing:

    Yes, I know this is a crappy poem, but hey, I just had to get all of this sarcasm out of me. :)
