Scholar and Gent

no need to squeeze im juiced
full of concentration
nothing adjacent butting in the conversation
button up, united nations sanctions
oceans deep, i afloat better than some plankton
sweet to walk a plank, when?
off into the unknown, ready to make friends
mental states depend on how willing
you're able to have your will bend
quill or pen, keys feel my steel zen
mill and reveal sense from the appeal and zeal
when rhyme is real dense, rich from two cents
no hitch, a rose lens, word scholar and known gent 
my infatuation is immense, wordsmith with diligence
