They’re not supposed to be Disney magical,
Tinker Bell’s pixie dust, or toned down to PG-13.
They don’t have restrictions.
They are raw, filthy, rebellious
exposing the flesh of a prostitute
like John refusing to wear a condom,
because a real adrenaline rush is chancing
whether he walks out with a sexual transmitted
disease or not.
They are simply made to leave an impression
that blasts through like Ryu’s hadouken
letting everyone know that regardless
the waterfalls of words spilled
from different oral cavities
at the end of the night
everyone is just
a bag of organs
that function
the same.

Ars Poetica is basically a poem written to express how you feel poetry should be written and it is titled 'Ars Poetica'. This is a very OLD Ars Poetica piece that I wrote SUCH a LONG time ago. I should write a new Ars Poetica. I've grown so much as a writer. Now where I am at in writing: this ars poetica doesn't apply to me anymore. Funny how time changes things. Thank you for reading.
