You may believe

Something from my heart is not
to be laid out and cut apart
or critiqued as or as not art
And freely I'll express it

It may be simple and mundane
It may reflect or sound the same
as every second Hallmark Card
you find upon a WalMart shelf

Well damn, I'm WalMart through and through
A Limerick, a bad joke too
A cough, a scratch, a spit, a yawn
A shiver- stretch, a smirk with teeth

So throw my poem in the trash
and laugh about it to your friends
My heart will go on where it wants,
express its love, and reach its end
