THE POET INSIDE IS DYING




Did this happen to Keats, Shelley
Edgar Allen Poe--Those we know?
For has my poetry lost its glow?
Oh, sure I wrote the book one day
On a shelve it too has passed away
But then if no one reads a wasted day
The poetry in me is dying today
A best poet in my realm was chosen
My poem sits now frigid and frozen
Is it time for me to be a poetry cloven?
I remember writing poetry was new
I was writing poetry just for you
When I died in poetry I haven't a clue
No longer it seems is there a need
To hear from others a ego feed
I see the poetry vulture circling overhead
Ah, my friend Edgar is this poet dead
Time to put all poetry books to bed
For the poets only read a poem that's mine
So for you here is my poetry valentine
