    A True Poet

     A true poet does not write
    For fortune or fame
    A poet writes to give knowlege
    Does not offer it up like some foolish game
    A poet does not need good comments
    For the confidence to write
    Its all about the passion
    The chance to incite
    It is to show emotion
    From this day to the next
    To question authority
    To simpilfy the complex
    We do not need praises
    Criticism will not bring us down
    We will continue to write
    With pen on paper our words we will put down
    So on with the subject
    Others words we will shut out
    This is our art, out passion
    This is what being a poet is all about!!!

    D.B. Johnson

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
