my
poet’s
plume
is gilded
thrilling quill
I write with
/ tilted /
–convoluted
& conceited
insecure
& prone to bleedin’
–it’s been branded
& bedazzled
–brushed with air
&
moussed & frazzled
–buffed up nicely
–thricely plated
–dipped in silver
–stamped & rated
–full of molten
~veins~
–of plat’num
–such a pen
I’m glad I’ve got one!
