The bards of Vienna will duel at Brianna's Barton Sool (School)
As we lay prostrate Tabula rasa-blank page Word play we engage Sleight of hand we write Together with tongue magic Comic and tragic Poetic dual Like the bards of Vienna We've burnt sienna We foster and play With our words and our phrasing Not mean, not praising We engage with rhyme Each other's druthers, "Respect!" To urge, not neglect Sometimes we flirt and Sometimes we fling dirt, but me Cajolery, you Sully the bully Flatter, not as indicters We are cowriters So in this haiku I don't offer you some prose But hand you a rose
