Welcome in the Middle

Diverse is better, not worse.

————

Some of my friends

don’t enjoy what I write

because they don’t like rhyme—

but so what? That’s alright.

I have other friends

who will smile sincerely

(though somewhat dismayed—

they love poetry dearly).

I also have friends

whose delight clearly shows

at the thoughts I have written—

but why? Heaven knows.

I’m somewhere between

and for better or worse,

I’ll just keep on writing—

I’m glad they’re diverse.
