The English language is so damned rich,
Can you say, " damn?" Can you say, " bitch? "
You bet your sweet bippy, you can.
Language is just like Spam.
I love to bend words,
It's what I do.
Add a little here,
Take a little, too.
Webster be damned,
It's what I do.
Rhyming is hard.
It can be a bitch.
So I bend a word here, or there,
To make it rich.
It can be quite contrived,
Even boring, to you.
Pushing words around,
Making them what they ain't.
Every once in awhile,
Shines through a Saint.
Do I change the language, true ?
You bet your sweet bippy, I do.

A poem, either it is a hit or a miss, depends much on the reader's simultaneous reaction. If the readers can feel the poem within themselves can relate to the poem, then the poem is a hit, regardless whether it rhymes or not.
We don't always speak in rhymes, why must we restrict our poem that mainly carries our thoughts to rhyme? Is there a reason for the rhyming or just someone of ancient decide that all poems of thoughts have to rhyme.
Oh imagine we all talk to each other in rhymes. Every word, every sentence in rhymes, that would be really something else.
Rhyming should be done in fun, but not to be obsessive. Not all poems have to rhyme.
My thoughts and my feelings are not rhyming, that's the truth.....but once in a while I would do a rhyming poem, but that would be entirely just for fun, not for the sake of poetry.
