It's So Easy, Writing A Poem That Doesn't Make Sense

First, you make a reference
To Rosanne Bar's Presidency
Or the way a road is a path
And a maze.

Then describe light trickling
Through clouds or leaves
As it slowly reaches your
Eyes at the speed of light.

Or you could list the possibly
Fatal desires that lie inside
The dark center of a peach
Covered in an outer sugar.

Boil all of this down
to the few little specs
swimming for their
lives in your wine.

Finally, you must compare
Your precarious situation
To something that opens
like a ballet, or syringe.
