Meta Poetry

Poetry Contest
Write a Meta Poem. Meta Definition:- (of a creative work) referring to itself or to the conventions of its genre; self-referential. One of the more popular uses of meta today is for the meaning best described by the formula "meta-X equals X about X." So, if we take the word "data" for our X, and add the prefix meta- to it, we get metadata, or "data about data." A meta-poem is a poem about poetry. The self-reflection sense of meta has also given rise to the use of the word as a standalone adjective, where meta is used to describe something that?s self-reflective or self-referencing.

For example my haiku called the simplest form:
Inexcusable
Oversimplification ~
Unacceptable
It's a haiku in the fewest words possible and refers to itself.
