I think that the poets goal in writing this poem was to show that a poem doesn't need all the things it is expected to have
Through the poem the persona(the character in the poem) worries about his unusual poem not being good because it does not have everything a 'normal' poem should
In the last stanza, when the teacher reads the poem, she gives the persona a high grade.
The poet did this to show that despite the fact that the poem was different, it was also brilliant
The poet wants to show that life is like a poem and that you don't always have to follow what everybody else does
Hope this helped
