 What Poetry Form Are You?| I am heroic couplets; most precise
 And fond of order. Planned and structured. Nice.
 I know, of course, just what I want; I know,
 As well, what I will do to make it so.
 This doesn't mean that I attempt to shun
 Excitement, entertainment, pleasure, fun;
 But they must keep their place, like all the rest;
 They might be good, but ordered life is best.

If I were not the heroic couplet, I'd be blank verse:

 What Poetry Form Are You?| I am, of course, none other than blank verse.
 I don't know where I'm going, yes, quite right;
 And when I get there (if I ever do)
 I might not recognise it. So? Your point?
 Why should I have a destination set?
 I'm relatively happy as I am,
 And wouldn't want to be forever aimed
 Towards some future path or special goal.
 It's not to do with laziness, as such.
 It's just that one the whole I'd rather not
 Be bothered - so I drift contentedly;
 An underrated way of life, I find.
