No Guts No Story

Burning breakfast bun
See how my creation’s spun
No clip in my gun

Punches in the gut
Crazy ramblings from the nut
Obscure subtle cut

A simple song sung
Reader’s noses often stung
Drippings of my tongue

Write out of the rut
Poetic lunatic’s strut
Burning bamboo hut

Tradition undone
Words simplistically spun
Now my rhyme is done
