Here's the thing with poetics

Their words are sweet and hypnotic

Don't be fooled

these words are not special, just methodic.

Those sweet words you thought were only for you?

romantic or erotic?

Are just words in the end- always quixotic.

Their intentions the same with any muse

But their actions, if any at all, are few.

And the ones they do?

Will always require less sacrifice of them, than of you

These men want exotic pets, Women like tigers or shrews

Then when faced with the requirements such exoticism is to use

They jump ship to find another new muse

But not before taking as much as they can from their willing canvas, however they so choose

All a poet has are words

Little guts, spine or nerve.

Full of tales that chitter sweetly like birds

Never ever trust a poets words

They'll say anything that sounds good

Just remember, A poet will ALWAYS find another muse.
