Poems by Sparrow

The Stars
One night I spoke

“Write a poem,”
they said.

“What kind of
poem?” I asked.

“Doesn’t matter.
Just make it short.”

My Life
I could
have
made a
fortune
in real
estate,
but
instead
I wrote
1,230
mediocre
poems.

The Sad Truth
Three-year-old
kids understand
my poetry.

How I Publish
I collect
my poems
into tomes.
