30 Poems About Language : Honor Among Thieves
(NaPoWriMo Challenge: April 29, 2014)
There is no honor among words
but they are criminally necessary.
Fools rush the line
where auteurs fear to tread.
He who hesitates writes haiku—believing
description is the better part of valor.
Thieves will tell you no news is good news
because most con men are theorists,
stealing us up, ransacking testimonies.
They have left us only fears.
And fear of the word cliché
is worse than the cliché itself.
