This Poem is Avant Garde
July 22, 2015
The name speaks for its self
It is unfamiliar territory
That is the whole point of it
It isn't for everyone my friend
If you're willing to try
Just sit tight
For I will teach you
What it is tonight
It is like a science experiment
Except its never been done
Its like pilot TV episodes
To show if it takes off
TV, music, ideas alike
Can all be of this type
But I warn you something
It's not for everyone you must know
If you like it, great
If you don't, sorry man
It really requires wider tastes
To be able to fully enjoy
I like this genre
Do you too?
I like some diversity
Do you too?
This world is full of ideas
That are still in need of exploration
Come with me, and you'll see
Beyond your expectations.

For people who want some diversity and relatively new ideas found in whatever their preferred media is. It is mostly prominent in music however, at least as far as I'm concerned and I have talked about a few bands of this genre from this year too. Like I said, it's not for everyone, but the few that do like this strange genre,like me, will find lots of bands that will be very enjoyable to them. Usually for this, it has to be unique enough that it can create it's own genre if other shows, movies or bands follow that idea.
