Pot of the Poet

Inside the pot of the poet Is the soup to maw Prepared of stew during dew Fishes and beefs crave for Survival off poet's mouth. In the soup of the poet, Ingredient abounds in the pot. Rhyme pepper appears along Haiku Epigram stewed Pastoral with Sonnet Timed Iambic tangle freely with Free verse Ode speak of Ballad with maggie of Tanka. Couplet spill curry over Epic of Quatrain Blank verse added onion to a Canzone Tin tomatoes had Epithalamium stewed Elegy took along a dry pepper to an Epitaph. Carpe diem had groundnut oil gushing Abc verse sprinkled Alliteration with a palm oil It took Rictameter of locust beans for a Sestina Salty Burlesque put smiles in a pot of Dirge The soup was full of Limerick of Etheree. Confusion of ingredients in the soup The poet wilt more in dilemma Which one of them do I maw? For the soup of the poet is full.
