Poetry 101

(A female lawyer whispers)

Some of my narcissistic plaintiffs write for greatness 
But the most divine I serve 

Write simply for self-expression

To embrace their sacrifices
Personal experiences and inner freedoms

So my question is

Are you 

A.

A freedom plaintiff 

Or

B.

A narcissistic native?
