Counting Sheep

Counting Sheep

I've written a poem
I've done it in rhyme
The content is sketchy
The tempo is fine.

I thought about Haiku
But I'm not that brave
And Japanese poets
Would turn in their grave!

I thought about sonnet
But had to admit
Unless you are Shakespeare
They all turn out shit.

I Want to be funny
I want to be deep
I dont want my writing
To send you to sleep.

And then I remembered
I wrote this for me
But if you are reading
You'llΒ have to agree

I need a better ending.
