my words, my words,

my






words

are

mine



theres no rhyme to it

no breaks

no

lines

through it



its a mish



itsamash



its all sorts of mess

the grammar rules are broken while I wear this white-stained dress



my words, my








words

the syllables I can write

and write well

but so can he



andshe, andthey

andit can write its own,

can't it?



my words,

my words,

...are not mine...

bacause if anybody can do it,

why should they worth a dime?

The author's comments:
How many "poets" do you know of today? Now how many of those are worth a dime? How many have changed our lives? How many can we really poets?
