Nocturne She Spun
My muse has thought it high time to return
from the urn, a ghastly nocturne she spun
giving me the cold shoulder and a chill
picking a fine time to leave me, no words to spill
around a group of poets and forget-me-nots
of pot eaters wearing wife beaters of polka dots
a few came in friendship and homeruns
oh dear! one had a potbelly gun
stuck to his waistcoat with chewing gum
from the urn, a ghastly nocturne she spun
assembled for fun in the shadow of the sun
from the urn, a ghastly nocturne she spun
giving me the cold shoulder and a chill

oh dear! one had a potbelly gun

Emptiness, passion...I believe I see it all in this one.

You're much too modest
