carry on from the beginning
we are the alive poets society
words said by another  
all we believe in is each other 

secretive language all our own 
passionate words among loving tales
writing words, raptureously flowing 
others left completely unknowing 

O captain, my captain 
guide us in the ways of words
careful now, do not reveal 
for they are our only seal

the only initiation 
is contributing a verse 
in a poem called living 
or this play unforgiving 

our pens speak like our tongues
writing what we wish we could say
undercover we stay, quietly 
we are the alive poets society

carpe diem
