Author's Commentary
Pretty much speaks for itself, unless you misinterpret it which I would find hilarious.
The pen is mightier than the sword.
You still prefer to paint knives,
blood and gothic crosses.
So you like medieval architecture?
Medieval?-it’s a historical period mate.
Architecture?-well that’s...oh forget it.
Scribble away in class,
forging poems in your tortured mind.
While the teacher drones on
about Byron and Keats.
Old men right?
They can’t understand.
Ah the cut’s on your skin.
The blood, the tears in your eyes
form a shining paste
for you to twirl into art.
Exquisite! I prefer ink.
It avoids the hepatitis.
The pain of her drugged insults.
Fresh sport!
for the virgin page
where it spins into effluent lines of beauty.
You’re invited to my wedding by the way.
She’s great I really love her.
Did you hear?
I’ve been published
The poem about the sea?
It wasn’t bad but still,
I’m not a real poet like you.
For one thing I don’t like vampires.
