What was your first poem?

[vagabond]

I burned all my early works,
when I was a much better, crazier, poet.
Streams of their phrases ribbon
in and out through my memory.
I'm not sure I can recollect them wholly.
Strangely, I don't regret burning them.
It was needful at the time.
Likely I will burn more of my poems,
if I ever get good enough again.

hey, this is a good poem. just lacks a title
