Ars Poetica Views Over the Marstal Bugt
A poem
is sitting on this bench
It’s mostly green.
Except for
Seagull guano
Looks Ars Poetica.
A poem
needs strategic placement.
A swan in the reeds.
Two blackbirds in the elm tree.
A poem
is a breeze in my right ear.
A poem
is a ferry crossing.
From this place to another one.
A poem
is one way.
No return, or purpose.
A poem is
a weather-worn flag.
Shredded by patriots.
Or piracy.
A poem
just is.

At first, I thought you mean Arse Poetica, a play on words, since you were, you know, sitting on a bench.
Imagine my chagrin I bothered to look it up. Ars Poetica, indeed!
