My response to a poem well written

How dare you pick up that pen?!

Rotate it between your thumb and finger

Produce an idea so sophisticated

That it leaves me stunned with a short

Response

Well, I never would steal from you but

Here you are blatantly stealing from me

And when you leave, I grieve

Because I'm a cracker-jack poet stuck

Between jingles and rhymes

Nothing worth seeing, but then I think

"How dare I?"

Let Satan get the best

Allowing him to make me believe that

This gift from God is something only I

Can possess.
