I will be caught
in the end
and chastised
if I write
to be recognised
for in that guise
a victim I will fall
to silly pride
a simple stringer
of words and thoughts
through the tumble
of life
a scribbler
a dabbler
a story-teller
on the insignificant side
let the real bards sing
I'll listen in deference
in humility abide
for a small voice
am I
that truth
I shouldn't deny
