I don't know if I like this one (even though I wrote it). I'm not sure if it isn't trying to be too clever for it's own good (which makes me guilty of the same thing)
The part of each line before the dash is supposed to be a heading (as in a chapter heading) but I couldn't work out how to do it on a web page (I suppose I could set them up as hyperlinks but then that would cheese people off when they followed a blind link. Perhaps if I wrote the story that the poem relates to it would work?
It's poetry, it wonderful, it's you!!!
It's different, refreshing and new.
You are discovering something different so carry through - Ah Haa

Nice one, shy.
It's an experiment in minimalism. It seems that the shortest accepted poem is:-
Fleas
Adam had'em.
I've no idea who wrote that one but I think I came up with a shorter one
Snot
Conk Gunk.
Ok, ok I know it isn't a pretty poem :-) and maybe it doesn't imply a story like the first does but it's the little imp in me that which always throws a spanner in the works when I try something like that.
I could just say
Post it
stick it
but I won't (smile)
That's a good 'un but it has 13 letters (I don't see there being a problem with it having no internal rhyme). It has just inspired me to come up with a ten letter one
Tax
PAYE day
Bit obscure if you work freelance (P.A.Y.E. is the system of tax, for employees, in the UK - Pay As You Earn. So, I managed to fit a pun in there as well).
