Poet's Onus

As the child draws from mother’s breast a warn sought comforting flow so the verses of a poet should attest to words gathered and fealty shown. From the nipple comes the best, as the terrier with a bone will tug worry work to arrest, so is the poet with a poem. The poet’s constant effort to reveal, by fullness of feeling in a new way and with a fresh and different appeal, mother’s costly sacrifice always gives sway.
