Analysis of I am not a poet



I am not a poet
you can tell by my words
sometimes it wont rhyme
its probably for the birds

I am not a poet
I have never wrote a poem
I thought about it once
but I decided to buy a knome

I am not a poet
as you can clearly see
this poem that you are reading
probably makes you want to pee

I am not a poet
and you will never hear from me again
I live in Minnesota
and my name is Sven
