a poet's sorrow is always told
a poet's sorrow is always sold
a poet's sorrow is never cold
a poet's sorrow ends up in mold
a poet's sorrow pierces the night
a poet's sorrow may hide you from fright
a poet's sorrow is not to be feared
a poet's sorrow is not to be mirrored
but a poet's sorrow is always so sweet
a poet's sorrow is always neat
and when a poet's sorrow lays behind sheets
you'll know that poet's sorrow has taken a leap
