I can’t write a poem, the nervous group member cried

How can I just write a poem today?

I don’t know precisely what to say

Should I write in form or in  free verse?

What verse  I write will certainly be worse

Worse than Shakespeare, worse than Wendy Cope

Worse than Dante,Milton ,what a hope!

If I write some words, no one might read

I will feel embarrassed by my greed

Greed for admiration praise and more.

I want good reviews and a high score

Expectations hamper human minds

Too much thinking turns the thinker blind

Everyone was once a little child

You learned to talk and walk so now be wild.
