Drunken Pen For Contest

WRITING FOR A CONTEST

If I write
   for a contest
I battle
  with my Pen


My Pen
 likes to go
 Where it pleases
    Wander through forests
        Jump over fences
           Dance around moons
My Pen
   doesn’t care
       Who watches
       Who claps
       Who smiles or frowns

My Pen
 Scoffs at scores

My Pen
  Stomps on numbers
   Ignores prizes
 
My Pen
  Grinds up glory

But

 My Pen
   Doesn’t
     pay the bills
