Poetry is Futile


Poets are hungry
for fame and glory

Swallow pain from a distance
and ruminate.

See pathos in 
naked eyes 

And romanticize.

Oh poetry,
what have you done.

You make me write
from air-cooled rooms

About your futility.

You are anasthesia
for escapists

like me.

Who can see the
world and write
about it.

But cannot do.
