A Poet Views, Critic Reviews

Fragrance of words I’m, who are you? 
Romance of lines brought in from blue, 
Make words dance in rhythm, 
Cut out noise in freedom,  
A poet asked: so, what’s your view? 

I wield a sword vibrant of hue, 
A species that poems review, 
A slayer called critic, 
I tick ye off, one tic,
I work in ways you’ve not a clue.  

This is how a poet might view, 
But critic would contest and sue: 
I keep pens pry, whetted, 
That, words are well-vetted, 
Unless I rate, whither will you!
