0102 This Is A Disposable Poem

This is a disposable poem. Under each stanza is a perforated line - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - you may read it stanza by stanza and throw away each as you read or having it read it through, shorten it stanza by stanza - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - since many poems on this site benefit from curtailing because amateur poets tend to be uncertain about their work - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - and as a result either repeat the essence of their poem at the end or comment on it which takes the power out of it - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - you might want to save that previous stanza but as for the other stanzas, here’s a suggestion - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - enjoy being a critic and dispose of them with a flourish in one of these ways certainly not both for reasons which will become apparent - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - one method is to place a waste-paper basket so called at an optimum distance far enough away to enjoy throwing the ball of scrunch-up - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - but near enough not to miss; do it with a flourish, feel good, feel judgmental, feel superior, feel right - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - or alternatively take this disposable poem into the smallest room to read for as long as it takes, this varies, then put it behind you so to speak - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - again with a decisive gesture though of course due care and you may wish to accompany this with some rather biblical utterance - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - such as, I shit in judgment upon the works of the ungodly and as for the works of the infidel I put them behind me - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - and they shall be carried away by the waters of righteousness yea as though they had never been - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - aaah that felt good
