I should be writing
my essay
but I’m writing
this poem
instead.
It’s not even
a proper poem.
Just ideas set
to
the
rhythm
of
my
soul.
So perhaps
I should call it
Moon Poem
because the essay
I am supposed
to write
is not about
moons
or
poems
or
raindrops
or
narwhals
at all.
And there is no soul
in my essay
because it’s
a proper essay.
Not a Moon Poem.

Confusing but in the right way. I love it.
