Your poem is too circuitous and certainly lacks substance. The syntax is odd and it essentially says:
'I am not a poet'
'I lack the substance'
'but much to be spoken'
However, these three lines are not substantial enough for even a Senryu. You may be striving for a meta-poem,
but it is not working. I would recommend finding something significant first, then build a core metaphor to present it
and post your poem in the Novice Forum.
