When The Fates Allow
I don't write Sonnets,
or Limerick verse
I don't write Haiku,
though often terse
I don't write Ballads,
or Horacian Odes
I don't write Parables,
to self-implode
But I do write in Rhythm,
and often in Rhyme
With meaning that's buried,
and metered in time
All verbal indenture,
I must disavow
For the meaning to rise,
-when the fates allow

With meaning that's buried,
and metered in time
All verbal indenture,
I must disavow
For the meaning to rise,
