Beware the poets Who (with wily words) May accept your invitation, Come to your (white) house And (after dinner of course) I feel somehow cheated, Denied that special scene: Your well-mannered smile Professionally frozen As you begin to understand There are true patriots (Wielding words of mass destruction) Against war. Mr Hamill's 1500 poems (And Ms. Nelson's scarf) Will not wait for another Literary event. Beware the poets. |
