"Poetry, the Life and Death, That is All" by Joe DiMino It is said That a brave man Dies but one death, And a coward Dies many But then there is Outside the rules The poet: Born with the first word A new creation; A Titan by a line And when in full Fancy flight, a divine Both dark and light; In truth, the poet Dies and lives Between refrains; The only real pain For himthe length Of a blank page; Pressing his opiate, The almighty pen (Immortal with his Own write), Even when nothing God-like to say For cloud shapes only He inks his pipe Again and again Getting pleasure enough From the poetry Smoking away .
