Why is most of the writing kind of sad or bleak? Do people need poetry to reach their peak or without it they are meek? Not creeps who weep endlessly stirring in their deep sleep but rather they leap likes frogs in the bogs. This is all okay since once when I picked up hay the bees stung me and I cried. I ran from the hive they didn't care about my jive. I wasn't tall and did not have a ball as I balled all the way home alone. 🤡
