What Bells
If not a Poet
what would I be
A soldier, a sailor
a fading marquee
If not a Poet
whose soul would I claim
a saint’s or a sinners
to praise or defame
If not a Poet
which path would I choose
the known or untraveled
which one did Frost use
If not a Poet
what hills would I climb
what bells could I ring
— in place of the rhyme
(Dreamsleep: January, 2025)
