No One is Your Vibrant Stereotype
One’s words and one’s
friends are not tuning forks
They do not vibrate, and are
thus not vibrant
Nor are they folksy, colorful,
or quaint
Curiosities for you to collect
Poetic verse is free of
DNA
An iamb suffers no
identity
It boldly speaks its rhythm
clear and strong
And metric feet march to their own chosen beat
But
If you feel that
any culture should vibrate
Then go sit on yourself
and just…rotate
