The Burdened Poet

The poet stands in the court of thought, Accused of wielding the pen as sword, Charged with crafting truths unbought, With words that strike and chords that chord. Guilty of exposing the soul’s bare form Of unraveling the unseen seam, The poet faces the judgment storm For venturing in the concealed realm For daring to dream or to utter the unspoken.
