Ze Last Poem

Ze Last Poem

This is ze last poem

At the bottom of my list

It is pretty simple

You’ll understand the gist



Last isn’t bad

But it’s not as good as first

It isn’t much better

But it’s not the worst



This is really ze last

Nothing comes after

It won’t make you cry

But doesn’t create laughter



This isn’t the future of my poems

It isn’t the past

I’m writing in the present

But it’s meant to be the last



This is last alphabetically

That’s what Post Poems is for

I’ll continue writing

And continue posting more



Otherwise I’d have to find other ways

To make my poems complete

I’d have to print them all out

And pass them out on the street

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I think the last poem listed in all of our portfolios looks like it was thought of last, but it's alphabetical. I thought I'd fix that in my portfolio. Now mine looks like it's meant to be last, but just alphabetically. Now there's order in my universe. See you in my next post :o)
