~Afterthought~
“Poet” was a big mistake
we
should have been called
prostitutes
or
poetitudes
willing to sell ourselves
to any passing muse overhead,
for a scrap of script,
a few lines of verse,
a mere bonanza of a stanza
shoot, hoot, a catchy line sufficiently fine,
at 1:33am
beggars can ill afford to be
“choosy”
to satisfy our accursed addiction to
the highs the lows of
addictive endless
