Three R's
 

 

The reading, the riting, and the   'rithmatic
the three R
=s.

Hopefully, you know how to do all three.

No,

this will not tell you how

to do all of them.

(Although, clearly,

the person who first

wrote Ariting@, could not write well).

What is this poem about,

you may ask.

     Well, you will just have to find out.

 

 

Ha!

For those of you

who stopped there.

That is fine.

That is one of the best endings of mine.

This may not seem

to be good poem insofar.

But compared to some others, though,

it would appear to be quite on par.

 

This poem is a favorite of mine,

for it is quite strange some times.

But this poem may

or may not be strange according

to who you are.

 

The writer, who writes

his or her lyric.

Or the reader, who

obviously reads it.

 

But is not the

reader also the

writer?

He reads between

the lines,

to find the

messages there.

 

He then thinks up his

own interpretation of it.

But is that not what the writer does?

Interpret things onto paper?

 

The poem is

really written twice.

The writer on paper,

and the reader in the unpublished

cavities of the mind.

 

My poem is what

you think.

So rewrite it as you choose.

Because all it is, is a poem.

And the poem is the reader, the riter, and the rhyme.
