A Terrible Poem

My rhyming skills are very bad,
Enough to make one very mad
If they hap' to be a poet
And cringe to hear the lack of flow it
Has!

Lol I like this. My only complaint is that it feels a bit too self-depricating when it is in fact a very decent poem with good rhymes. Maybe it's that the title and the content match up to basically say the same thing. Maybe it's that there isn't more of a twist at the end to undermine the fact that the poet is talking about how bad the poem is (ex. have the speaker be arrogant and fishing for compliments instead of self-depricating).

Anyway probably reading too much into a poem clearly written in jest! But thought I'd throw that out there :P
