Each Week

No one likes being out of the loop So latest scoop is to start a poetry group Writing about subjects in the news And why there is no perfect excuse. What I write about I find in my mind And if any of it was left behind, It probably to you was of no concern; Would end up having much heartburn. I believe in writing about current affairs; Look around and will see layers and layers And to me what really seems to appall Are the ignoramuses who don't care at all. If Brunswick County wants to become literary Should start off with opening a poetry library For those who are exquisite and inquisitive Who with their lives in libraries love to live. Meeting and things started out as a big mess Then ended up being a complete, total success; Everyone loved it from time they were seated And now each week they want it to be repeated.
