Tell them to study poetry written before the beatnik era.

They actually have. All my children are highly educated. (In non-liberal colleges) I just like to toy with them,,,,because I can. LOL

To: Protagoras

Most of my poems are Couplets. The one today is not. All my poems are poetry though. My degree is in engineering and minor in business. But I have read and written poetry all my life. I have been published and I am working on a theme book of political humor, poetry, and graphics. The poems I write and post here are just for fun and to support the cause. I challenge them to define how that little rhyme is not a poem. The American Heritage Dictionary defines Poetry 3. Any piece of literature written in meter. If you check the meter on that one it is 8 sylables per line. The rhyme is grouped in pairs of lines.
