Verse City

Dennis Parker


Verse City
1
Another anniversary of nothing but adversity.
How many perverse verses converge here to be versus me?
And, exactly how much is the cost, per verse, for me?
Perverted how I fit into this universe, so perfectly.
So, I'll write another verse, a multiverse, complexity.
Please take these words away, become simplicity.
I've nothing more to learn inside this university.

    Wow! This 'Verse City' poem is so powerful and thought-provoking. I love the use of rhyme and the way the words flow seamlessly together. The imagery of adversity, perversity, and fitting into the universe is truly captivating.

    Some improvement suggestions could be to perhaps explore more varied themes or emotions in the poem to add depth and complexity. Additionally, consider incorporating some literary devices like metaphors or similes to enhance the imagery and create a stronger impact on the reader. Overall, great job on this poem! Keep writing and experimenting with different styles and techniques to further hone your craft.
