Brevity

I wonder why 
Some steal the sky
To take away from you and I

Don't they have words of their own
If not maybe they are all alone

If so then we should pity
As word thieves are not very pretty

So its better to care and share
Our words that take them there

And if someone copies down my spin
Good luck to her or to him

I do hope though that they are inspired 
To write a poem I will admire

Poetry to share with me
So I can steal their brevity
