A Sublime Rhyme Perhaps: Anonymous

When writing a poem

I love to rhyme

But it's like the Somme,

Where i could hit a mine

I am asian

I’m good at math

I am korean

Listing myself is a task

My favorite interest is entomology

And reading comics to add to that

Yet i can never quite escape the reality

That school is a never ending rat

I’d like to think i understand the world

That i know society as if i charted its map

Yet there’s little to society that i have unfurled

Even my format to this poem is whack

I said that i am korean

Yes, Both my parents are such

Yet i can never shake the feeling

That as an American, that notion is muck

However, there is little i can share with American society

With a toxicating and constricting culture i despise

There is too much freedom in media, too little in life, in this land of the free

Yet it is no different in Korea; this causes me strife

There is so much i despise, i may as well be a cynic

It's easy to do though, when you care about the environment

And the world seems to treat our climate as a throwaway stick

Yet I should just treat this like a mint.

There is plenty of good to see in the world

Even if at times i don’t see it at all

While i often think my being is swirled

I am here and myself, and i suppose that that is all
