I'M Nobody Yet I Write

I’m Nobody! Yet I write.
Do You - Write - I’ll bite!
Nobody reads poetry these days.
Save - You and I - Silly knaves!

How brilliant - To write!
To bring words to life.
Make them dance across a page.
Let’s write - Anyway!

Oh, Ken! Emily Dickinson sure is beaming down at you now!! You know, I love trying to imitate her style. Did you ever try it with 'Fame is a Bee?' -- It's not so easy to duplicate it tit for tat, lemme tell you. Cheers, Gershon

Thanks for the suggestion. I had not read 'Fame is a Bee?' So, I now have and here is my quick emulation. Just a wee bit of political commentary. Joe is a tool. He has no sense-- He has no clue-- Ah, too, we are the fools.
