all right,
your shout is it
very kind

and what is it that you do
a writer
how nice
never met one before

tell me, when you get words in your ear,
do they bite
like fleas
do they drive
you mad

and truths
how hard are they to live with really
I bet they sleep all day
and whine
like cats

why'd they give up rhymes
