When Rhyme has passed

 When Rhyme has passed


I think I’ll think outside the bag

and write between the verses.

I’ll stiff them when they call for sag

and act while they rehearses.


I know I’ll live outside the land

of rules and lengthy speeches.

I’ll, finding rhythm, tune my hand

when free is what they preaches.


I’m anti-poet, since you asked,

inside the lines I’ll not.

And chances are, when rhyme has passed,

my verse they’ll long forgot.
