Here's #3, by a noted master of the catchy pop tune. You may know this one:
And it's no sacrifice Just a simple word. It's two hearts living In two separate worlds. But it's no sacrifice, No sacrifice, It's no sacrifice at all.
Mutual misunderstanding After the fact. Sensitivity builds a prison In the final act.
We lose direction No stone unturned. No tears to damn you When jealousy burns.
This is almost the poster child for minimalist poetry. And yet I adore the song.

And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word.
It's two hearts living
In two separate worlds.
But it's no sacrifice,
No sacrifice,
It's no sacrifice at all.
Mutual misunderstanding
After the fact.
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act.
We lose direction
No stone unturned.
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns.
This is almost the poster child for minimalist poetry. And yet I adore the song.
