Oh, how the poets boast, about all they have written,

it is safely in vain, they would say, as they looked

my way in haste...I would call them out by name,

telling them, why do you act ashamed?

Don't ever cast blame,- as long as this world remains

there will always be something to say,

or something to write about, that will sweep away

those agonizing pains...that brings on the rain,

that stains the pages in tears, where the fears

has lasted in many darken years.

So let your mind see the images, and let your heart

feel the emotions, and let the art, make a new start,-

in what you poets need to share with poetic care

..and write what it is you feel,-

even if it makes you ill...just keep it flowing,

then you can keep on boasting,

about all, you have written...to a poetic audience.

Because I am a poetess, that has a lot to say,

Oh, why do you poets look my way?
