What a deep and profound poem.

The fact that the word "shy" rhymes with the word "why" is in and of itself an anomaly. The usage of uppercase further conveys a rather personal undertone of self doubt. The poet is clearly attempting to convince himself that there is no point to remaining shy when he in fact knows that he is inevitably will stay shy. The poem is a last resort that is a desperate attempt to show his true courage.
The use of uppercase underlines his failure.
Have a great one!
First of all, This poem is horrible.. It only has one word.
Second, Can a mod lock this or even better, delete it? It is just someone's alt (mage_bank) trying to be funny after getting kicked from chat.
