This poem was written right before this tweet, as a playful expression of my creative frustration, trying to understand the concept of poetry that never rhymes.

A War Between Words by Jemar Souza

Scheming little bastards,
Trying to steal our shine!

Purposely
Perpetrating
The preposterous
Posed as prose,

Without a God damn rhyme!

Tell me,
What’s the difference? -

What separates us
From them? -

If all they do
Is space things out,

Differently
Than most their friends?

Oooh I hate those lies,

That reek
Of utmost treason.

They’re worse
Than those among our best,

That rhyme
For no damn reason!
