The Best Poem Of Michael Marrotti

The Inefficiency Of Poetry

This 
despicable 
world is spinning 
out of control
there's not 
a poet alive 
who can do 
a thing about it

We keep 
orchestrating
these little word's
thinking it's gonna
make a difference

The system won 
all you need is love 
tell that to 
John Lennon 
if you believe 
in the second
amendment

Still I waste 
my time 
with this 
dying art form
ripping holes 
in my flesh 
to expose this 
sentimental blood

There's a point 
at the bottom 
of this pen 
I can't say 
the same 
for this 
inefficient poem
