The Starving Poets
We are but starving poets
Feeding on each others words
As we post words of our own
Some are smooth as song birds
Each line has its meaning
As we each read along
Writing from inspirations
Some can be smooth as a song
Though we all are different
Yet we enjoy it just the same
Some call it pure poetry
While others claim we're insane
Just a bunch of starving poets
Not looking for fortune or fame
If we we're writing just for money
We would have starved, what a shame
We have so many different faces
And so many styles of writes
Some of us lose some sleep
As we write through the night
And we write on so many subjects
As inspirations come and go you see
Just like this one right here
I must write as it comes to me
