Pen Meet Paper


What in the ink whorl is papièr churl going on?

Ill quill vapors are trying to victimize me,
vex prose don’t belong
Word saber player haters trying to stick it to me,
throwing cursive stones
Their coarse paper tone is so digital angry

Blog blots got their writes all wrong
Sore spots  ...  ink stains
Rotted crease stroke brains 
always wanna bring paper cut pain

Plenty briquettes blurt-y wanna dance dirty,
a-many ugly exchanges ain’t squid spit purty

If coal paper meet a diamond pen,
Crush Groove is gonna tango win

Counterfeit clone muse
using plagiarist, copy printer tools
Blank scroll troll fools
didn’t learn Poetry Slam old school 

Any lip ink unwell with a lying spiel,
gets the clean-up Truth erasure deal

Epithet tongues liquor epitaph envelopes,
gin up troublesome, scarlet letter tropes 

But when this Iron Will pen
meet their forged paper
Pallbearer finger caper 
gonna press an eulogy send

Writ smack weakies think they’re grit summon strong!

Freddie, Vijay & SoS comments said it so well. From start to finish, a smack upside the head with your words. You never fail to motivate the spirit in your emotive writes. I hope you keep the spirit into a brand new year. -Richard

With a powerful pen like yours Freddie, your iron will always be triumphant. I felt the intensity of your write throughout in superb lines like:If coal paper meet a diamond pen,Crush Groove is gonna tango win..and ..Any lip ink unwell with a lying spiel, gets the clean-up Truth erasure deal. Excellent response you wrote.
