Genius is my illusion
For only through confusion
Can I bring forth
Anything of worth.
Genius is taking away
The lower things you can say
And leaving only a narrow
Scope of thoughts you can borrow.
Genius is repetition
Of a predefined ambition.
Just the telling of old stories
From accepted categories.
Genius is not
Writing about what you thought
Genius was at all.
This poem will not fall
Under the genius that you saw.
It has a category flaw.
The rhyme scheme doesn’t fit at all
And the rhythm seems a bit stalled.
But hey… I had a ball..
