Marbling Eye

And the Poet writing, conscious he was writing his first poem, threw it away;

The captivating idea of himself as a Poet proving weak and uninspired;

And he went to his local creative writing workshop;

To be with those to whom he was foreknown;

And in between classes at a nearby pub there was drinking and talking;

To help build his destiny as one who conforms to the image of a Poet;

And in the period of his online submissions, he imagined himself to be with the Poets.
