Help yourself to some cake...

A Poem by C Peril
"

... Because you're a poet! And a poet is a pretty good thing to be, all things considered.

"
We're not in the business {of
Bold visual proclamations, 
bedazzling the senses
Stupor on the wall 
of the hall in the Manor with it all 

Our craft is vapor, 
thin tendrils of truth drifting,
the naked shadows
hiding betwixt 
flanking covers 

The monk preserving pristine knowledge,
Monastery out-of-sight 
Lovers whispering God's word 
in the thunderstorm 
 

An ode to those
that chose this artform;
softly you say it
to the world that shouts
