The Pen Is The Finest Sword

🪶

I prefer assets to assumptions…

if we’re assessing things

without being asinine.

But like an ill-mannered ass,

I make a passing remark –

poetic license leaves it’s mark.

No one respects “a poet”,

In todays world of widgets,

Gadgets and VR porn.

No one understands the burn,

Of the pen poised to poetry

Or why a poet yearns to say it,

So you might understand

The worms writhing in the can

Of a poet’s stomach

As they take a pen in hand
