Poetaster

Oh woe am I

How Poe can I go?

My own words have brought me low


I thought that it was benign

To tossle words and risk my rhymes

To win free speech and hide my political opine

But nay!  It was far from fine


I drug Purple Prince into my net

Of attention seeking needs unmet

Too late did I see my guilty tears so wet


Nothing left but to pour fine words like wine

To cleanse my tracks with verbs like brine

To repent with beauty speaking to hide my crime

Of being simply put the worst Poetaster online
