Since this technically falls under art (literature is an art) and it's not Jazz related, post your poetry here. Free verse, sonnets, quartrains, hell, even haiku, post your work!

Here's a poem I wrote while bored out of my skin in in-school suspension, for my love. :3

Constants

300 million miles from Sol
To Earth, a measurement known as AU,
Density equals mass over volume,
An equation, constant as I Love You.

Fibonacci, primes, perfect squares, and i,
Logic and numbers that stay and hold true,
Things that will never change, though some may try
To debunk the constant of I Love You.

Also, don't be shy to post yourself reading the poems. Poetry is best experienced while read aloud. And this coming from a guy who can only stand poetry from Langston Hughes, Robert Frost, and Ogden Nash.
