Russell Pens For All

The greedy should not go,
Should not go to poetry parlour
Where words are intoxicating
Like ethanol in the vein.


There ritzy rhythms rival rhythms 
In  thrilling forms and fancies
Like wares for christmas sales
Arresting patrons’ attention with charm.

He that is greedy stay clear
Lest you suffer constipation
Only the contented can survive
The temptation of poetry parlour

He is just a super cook
Whose dishes often taste candy
His recipe measures to satiate
Burger king in the house.

To everyone he has the taste
His page provides for old and young
Who does not know here
That Russell pens for all ?
