Okay, here is my “ugly poem“. Feel free to read into the title:D
When I thought of an ugly poem I guess what I fixated on was sounds that were ugly to me, and some imagery that was kinda gross or unpleasant. There isn’t much to this poem in the way of depth or content. Nice low standards here people. See, you can put any old crap up here! 🙂 And I’ll probably take the advice of the title with this poem:D lol
Chuck It
The word “chuck” cuts
hard as nails
leaves a metallic
taste on the tongue
I hate it
the way the “k” sound crashes and stomps
on the fluidity
of words
and the “ch” is static
turned up loud
an ocean roaring
a song that clangs dissonance
dark
hard
dropping the poetic ball
stomping on toes
a child throwing a fit
fucking with the rhythm
stupid
sticking to the tongue
the way licorice sticks in your teeth
and you dig
distending your mouth as you try to gouge out the black
gunk
and the strong flavor of the offending words is thick as grease on the roof of your mouth
and there is nothing you can do but wait for it to break down
fade like an echo
