This was a piece which I found rather moving, so I tried to track down its source. I failed, but I’ll re-post it here anyways.

I hate poetry. I hate it with such a passion that I lose words. I grew up on words. I grew up on philosophy. Poetry is like the pathetic kid brother of philosophy.

I write this rhyme
It’s not the first time
I think it’s so stupid
except guided by cupid
when love is at stake
there’s nothing I hate
so although I don’t
normally like what I wrote
when I’m so inspired
I’ll never be tired
rap I could understand
but why is poetry in demand?

I was first introduced to this as “English is tough stuff”, and the author was unknown back then. More information has since been uncovered.
