What Is True (Ben Kopel)

I'm tired and this snippet of a poem by Ben Kopel is just what I need - a short, jazzy little number - easy to read and understand.

Poems that mimic songs amuse me b/c it always makes me wonder about the line between a song and a poem. I mean, aren't they basically the same?

This poem has a musical beat and deals with themes (relationships, sour love) that are not uncommon in pop music. Also, the simple idiocy of the lines (title included) smacks of the obviousness of any cheesy pop love song.

It's a pleasant poem.

Favorite line: "one must be one"
