I had assumed
All of you
Were in here
Writing free verse
In celebration of
National Poetry Month.
April is the
Month declared for
Celebrating poetry past
And poetry present
And maybe the
Poetry within us.
So I just
Figured that was
What was going
On in here.
Poetry without rules.
I thought you
Were wearing black
Turtleneck sweaters and
Playing bongo drums
And were totally
And completely immersed
In free verse.
