poets are pain
pain is hurt
hurt is blood
blood is red
red is poppies
poppies are war
war is hate
hate is horrid
horrible things come with a cost
and cost is not something forgotten a lot
and not forgotten is remembered
and remembered is never forgotten
and never forgotten are poems
and poems need poets
and poets are pain

poets are pain
pain is hurt
hurt is blood
blood is red
red is poppies
poppies are war
war is hate
hate is horrid
horrible things come with a cost
and cost is not something forgotten a lot
and not forgotten is remembered
and remembered is never forgotten
and never forgotten are poems
and poems need poets
and poets are pain
as a kid, i would think the world was ending from the sound of a loud semi-truck. pain is everywhere if you listen hard enough.
