True confession

Poetry is not my thing. I have never been drawn to it. It always seems like it's trying too hard. Forced rhymes and difficult phrasing. I prefer a good meaty story with lots of words. A chance to really flow with no limits. Sometimes I read poems and have to admit I don't really understand. Where is the back story? I want someone to fill in the missing details.

I think my life is the same way. I don't like boundaries or meaningless rules. I don't want to fit in any particular box. I want to let the words flow and get the whole big messy story.
