Muse Music Poetry requires no one to explain it, And water needs no cup to contain it. Trips to the river to lie down for drink As incommodious as refusals to think About the virtue of banks to a stream, Or the beauty of form in a bard's dream. A poem requires no meter to restrain it, Decrying aid for the reader to retain it. Patterned repetition avoid like perdition? Rhythmic rendition, to passion, sedition? Freedom, it's the bard's right, say you? True, like the water in your cup is, too! --HA |
