Poets' Onus - Double Rictameter
Poets
Have a mission
To raise the consciousness
Of the indifferent masses,
And beat the drums for those that cannot beat
They have to bring to memory
Greatness-, and ring the bell
Because they are
poets.
Poets
Must come to grips
With issues of their day,
And to being maligned,,-
Create a legacy for the Unsung,
Ready and willing to accept
Scorn, abuse and insults,
If they be true
poets.
