The Two Minute Poem

Build a bridge.
Knock it down.
Walking on clouds
Without a sound.
Bridges go nowhere
When surrounded by dust.
Why even go on one
Without any trust?
Claims and oysters,
Beggars and thieves,
Bridges collapse
Over unsettled knees.
Look into the sky.
What do you see?
A bridge abandoned
By the birds and the bees.

I wrote this poem in two minutes. It's fun to see what you can write in such a short amount of time.

@zebra2222 That's kinda like me. When it flies into my head, I'd better grab a pencil and paper quick.

Marvelous. I couldn't even write a poem that rhymes.
