Out of my league,  id challenged a master
Im in over my head, a sestina?
This isn't going to work half-assed here
Going to disappear like John cena
Figure maybe if I just post faster
To make up for my lack of depth

To break through the incessant writers block 
Out of the ashes rebuilt and reborn
Figure skating on a burnt broken clock
Im wondering if I would be forlorn
Going day to day hawking all this schlock
This bogus utter lack of depth

This challenge was a test to push myself
To try something new mixed with something old
Going to grid and organize the shelf
Out of the chaos layering neat folds
Im the constant tested on someone else
Figure out how to reach the depth

Figures pouring out one line at a time
This method of extricating  new words
Im digging digging deeper in my mind
To at least find something ive never heard
Out of all the forms this one's worst for rhymes 
Going ultimately for depth

Going to make up arbitrary rules
Figures that only i would care about
Out to humuliate myself the fool 
This failure in the struggle for what, clout?
To impress with unsolvable puzzles?
Im for one thing out of my depth

Im   forfeiting this duel it was cool though
Going    to write a limerick anyway
To   those of you reading give it a go
Figure   out a new way to have your say
This    experiment was fun, just so you know
Out    do yourself, length width and depth

Im saying, poetry is depth 
and even though we may not have it now
Somehow, We're going to figure this out
Peanut butter honey banana sandwiches
