Thankless
What a mighty web we weave
Throughout the times,
Throughout that raging river of poetry
That thankless flow of consciousness.
Possibly, the very beginning of story telling
With beautiful couplets that produced the likes of Beowulf
That carried on for centuries and centuries
To possess the spirit of Shakespeare
That carries on today
With you or me
With it's titillating and frivolous free verse
And masterful spoken word
Rap even
But all thankless
