In the U.S., April is National Poetry Month, as decreed by The Academy of American Poets. It's also National Make Fun of National Poetry Month Month, as decreed by me.
The Acceptance of Neoformalism
Stop this behavior at once!
That's a command to you both.
It's illegal to rhyme
Any serious poem
In National Poetry Month.
