Steal This Poem Poem by Brian Mayo

Steal This Poem

Rating: 5.0


Here's a poem for you to steal
Just take it; don't be shy
I'm sure the man who wrote it has
An adequate supply.

It's just the poem you're looking for-
Amusing and succinct
Yet bad enough for people to
Believe it's one you inked.

You simply highlight all the text
And copy with one click
Then paste it anywhere you want
It's really just that quick.

Don't stop now; just one more step
And then this poem you'll claim
It's really just a little thing…
You've got to sign your name.

Fabulous poem. True art challenges its audience to think, and occasionally inspires other artists to create. It inspired I Stole This Poem, my silly little answer or continuation, but the singularity and original idea belongs to Brian.... or his victim!
