Pen to paper
is alomost anachronistic
since pecking the pad
or say, the key,
is the thing to do for you
who has
something worth a delivery,
what needs to be said
or simply
saying what fills empty time slots;
just get the message across
of what is in your heart
and mind,
spill out inner thoughts
for public consumption,
but
do not leave out the poetry:
after all-poetry
is precisely that:
poetry: the real you
on paper-oops,
I mean on screen:
all-poetry...
kindly do not dispute
the verdict of the Prevailing Muse... DW

true poets, well,that is in the eye of the reader, is it not?

True fact, Dear Voices; however, some eyes require spectacles as they are deficient in vision, hence true may also become an indeterminable variant to contemplate; what say you?..DW

i dont consider myself a "real" poet or any other sort of. i dont think that it is important to strive to be a good one. i just write. if someone else wants to call it poetry, well, there are worse things to be called i suppose.

an indeterminable variant again would depend upon the one doing the contemplation.as we all set our own variables.
