ExtinctionA Poem by Riley Bray1/12/15
My pen has little worth
Value determined By measurable praise From the reader and not my own hand Words strung up In an elegant arrangement Meant to attract the eyes Of the literature hungry A breed almost extinct In this race Forevermore I wish to operate As Riley Bray Famous poetry Famous activist Famous therapist Famous SVU cap All beginning with a few strokes Of worthless pen To create a beautiful written world But how can I do so? My pen has little worth Value determined by The views and likes it gets For I am in the center Of a dying breed A group from which I cannot escape
