The Skilled Poet

Drinking a bloody mary, he stands aloof.
Not a snob but superior to his trade,
He is a poet of today.

Just look at his attar.
His facial expression tells of his dramatic aura.
Maybe, he is in dramatic internal dialogue.

His attire is appropriate.
He poses as a guru.
A skilled poet devises his next move.
