Big Valley Bookfest today - Go Big or Go Home Broke

Restless Poet

Two-dollar words

Twenty sent paradigms

Something deeply meaningful

Buried in menial pairs of rhymes

Emotionally bare in mind

Anything is fair to find

Useful or amusing

While my ego bleeds profusely

From humility’s abusing

If this is seen

To be obscene

It is my own undoing

For living in a poem

Is where everybody knows him

Only for extensive

Shallows and depths

Equally expensive

Comprehensive worst to best

Unimpressive in between

I respectably agree

As I should gasp

A smoke-filled breath

Before I catch

My thrill of death

Make sure the hook

I hang my hat on

Has been deeply set

For statements made

I should have passed on

Show no interest in regret

Love this line: Anything is fair to find

Useful or amusing

While my ego bleeds profusely

From humility’s abusing

If this is seen

To be obscene
