THE POET AND THE READER

By Dan Donlan, www.PoetryPoem.com/dandy1    Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime



The poets job is to tell a story
Somewhere mixed in truth and fiction
in the middle there may be truth
The readers job separate the confusion
Just a little literary intrusion
in the middle what is truth and not illusion
Those that have not the time turn to boozin
For those who don't understand readers I am loosen
there are those who write just for self edification
A waste of time really but the mind is on vacation
For me critique is a way of the unwanted erasin
This poem is killing time bored I am just spacing
But in the end it is just telling another story
I am not into poetry for fame or glory
The best poems I have are while mowing the lawn
By the time I get inside I forget and poem is gone
