But it doesn't rhyme

Per a person who's partaken periodically in poetry...

I acknowledge alliteration approaches sultry...

 

And a good haiku,

Without cheater on meter

seems exotic too,

 

But if you get

upset

and fret

when you get yet,

I bet

again,

when they skip layout

 

When they again chime,

"Why doesn't it rhyme?"

 

Why hate? Pentameter remark aside,

Their trust, betrayed, is it now justified?

 

Your prose knows no bounds, but the critics surround your lack of verse to them is terse, for dropping the syllabic match, you snatch from them their hope of hearing something dope, and that's the catch.

 

For you have led them far, promised them a candybar,

but skipped the chocolate along the way, yet you still expect a payday;

for you were disobedient, by dropping out the primary ingredient,

and are justly reviled for your vice, of having relied on only spice!
