use of words

the use of words
from a starving appetite
to a famished pig
who is to say?
the rule is...
that the rule, ain't
and i will fancy that
as you can tell
so, i make haste
to throw out
my unlimited value
in my ease
to please some, yes
but me
and my content lays here
as ruthless as ever
can the blame be?
education?
no, i say
that, is limited
and i make a point...
across the grain
is amusing
between the lines
one, goes invisible
