Re, ‘’I Met Banksy’’ poem.
Permit me to apologize for
what could be a character
assassination/déformation.

Besides, using Alcoholics
Anonymous as a venue for
for this fictitious encounter,
was, in itself, opportunistic.

Therefore, I, The Proscribed
Poet, pseudonym or aliased,
as Ryan O’Leary, do hereby
retract meeting Banksy at AA.

Re: I Met Banksy, poem.
Dear Ryan, or whatever
you wish to be known as,
I appreciate your amend.

But try to be conscious
of the fact, that there can
be no creativity, without an
egoless devotion to secrecy.

Black sheep are the only
ones that don’t get lost
when it snows, yet, they
are never the bellwethers!
