+| I think that I could write formal poems
+| exclusively, or at least inclusive
+| with all the other stuff I write
+| I guess.  Of course, I've already written
+| a few, this one included, though "formal"
+| is maybe a stretch.  Is blank verse a form?
+| What is form anyway?  I picture old
+| women counting [stitches on their knitting][knitting],
+| keeping iambs next to iambs in lines
+| as straight and sure as arrows.  But my sock
+| is lumpy, poorly made: it's beginning
+| to unravel.  Stresses don't line up.  Syl-
+| lables forced to fit like [McNugget][] molds.
+| That cliché on the arrow?  I'm aware.
+| My prepositions too---God, where's it stop?
+| The answer: never.  I will never stop
+| writing poems, or hating what I write.
