Hello all. Unlike prose, when I sit down to write a poem, I have no idea what I'm doing. I'm doing my best to learn the basics, but sometimes I can't contain the muse. Any comments which might help with structure or form would be appreciated.

Count one. Michael Brown.
Count two. Cecil the lion.
Count three. The Confederate flag.
Count four. Donald Trump.
Four bars in my prison door.
Sent inside
until the people forget to care.
Me, rehabilitated.
Fact. Certain lives matter.
Fact. Animals are people.
Fact. Heritage is hate.
Fact. No one is illegal.
No one is wrong
unless the people care more than you.
