WRITER'S CARDINAL SIN
ORIGINALITY…
is there "anything new
under the sun"?
seems not, but others watch
and wait,
and slyly slip in beneath the radar
stealing thoughts, ideas, words; someone else's
tweaked just so…
mustn't let anyone guess lest they cry
PLAGIARISM!
but it's true,
all manner of fraud will out
isn't it a pity one cannot hide forever;
at least, not to those who truly
HAVE
originality
