It was writers gaff

A Poem by andrew mitchell

A poem emancipated
lies word starved on paper:
Literary Correctional Services arrived too late.

Poetic police called to investigate
a possible homicide:
stanzas cordoned off with red tape,
a crime scene with
little words to go on.


Poetic police conclude
there’s no foul play
but death from malnutrition.

Thanks Dylan
I think this poem says feed your mind good, not your ego. You don't want to starve the ideas to death, let them come out naturally.
HNY great Aussie!
