A poem about writing a poem
An arrangement of words on the page
loathsome and wretched they be
The trills and coiling gulps of this
Heartily impassioned phraser
That take a dolt's brain to its' height
I speak because I must
I dream because I'm able
The pall of accursed thoughtlessness
Can not be stayed forever
