The best thing we can hope for is not to be understood

but to be misunderstood by original minds.

I remember the first poem I wrote, I was in like 6th grade.

I think I had 15 or 20 journal entries to the next day for school.

I was trying to get out of doing something;

I was trying to do the least amount of work,

So I wrote poems, and here is one of  the poems I wrote that night:

Then it hit me That nice lawns are pretty

But man’s too ignorant to stop mowing, So lawns are cut each day.

Because man doesn’t care About cutting nature’s hair,

Even if nature doesn’t want it that way."

Well, the next night, my mom gets a phone call

one of the great unheralded fountains of genius

it's so easy you can misunderstand anything,

chances are our work will not be received

Whether we are talking about writing poems,

most people would argue that a degree in poetry

living at home in your parents' basement,

eating pepperoni pizza and drinking beer out of a bag --

at best, maybe a side gig teaching poetry.

But it was surprisingly great preparation

I'm waiting for the laugh, because it's Snooki --

Ok, the job of a poet is to find truth in beauty,

and by that I mean our own experience of things,

and to create experiences that other people can feel.

What if CMOs of big companies approached their jobs

Now, we would never send crack teams of poets in

the worlds of poetry and, let's say, media actually are.

Sonnets have pretty rigorous form of rhyme schemes,

What about television? Not so dissimilar.

An hour of television is actually 44 minutes of real show,

the rest, as you know, promo time and paid commercial time.

a heads-up from the poet, a rhymed couplet,

"Hey, I'm about to wrap this up, pay attention"

"So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee."

Well, things are a little different, right?

an hour can be a 3-minute video, a 30-second clip,

or even the 3-second look on the face of an adorable grasshopper.

It sounds like free verse: E.E. Cummings knew that.

to break out of its rigorous formal constraints.

Now, if you are crafting a poem, or a TV show,
