The Unknown Writer With Words To Be Said
With my quill at hand I must create ink to write
I will gather pine sap from a tree then bone black
Pigment while mixing it together with pestle and mortar
I will take the skin of a sheep and prepare it for writing
Before I can start I must find paraffin for candles so I may see
Then twist some cotton threads for a wick, then
Build a table to write upon with a solid chair then chop wood
For a nice warm fire, then I can cook the sheep that I skinned
For a hefty meal before I can begin this poem
I will start with:
To Be or Not To Be, That is the question
