I Need a Pen

Oh the one above 
I need a pen that fights
Mightier than all swords
Hence meek as dove.

I need a pen that bleeds.
Bleeds for truth
Speaks truth
And nothing but the truth.

I need a pen that weeps.
That weeps for probity
Regardless of corrupt creeps
Shows forth reality.

I need a pen
That appreciates romantism via Classicism
Even in folds of ten
I'll make it mature
Not in caricature.

Pose my pen strait
Let my scripts straight.
And let not my works late.
Prithee.
