The Dangers of a Bored Poet

When poets get bored you should worry. They may try to stir up some "fun". I think it's the kick of excitement they get when they see what they've done. If it seems like it may be too quiet they'll want to get feathers to fly. Sometimes it is fun just to watch them while they 'virtually' yell, scream or cry. They all love the thrill of the drama and of course need to have the last word. We all know the one that is right is whoever can use bigger words! I get nervous when things start to simmer and peace is the only real sound. Things can change in a matter of minutes if there's more than one poet around.
