Why I Write Poems With A Pencil Poem by Syed Ahmed Shah

Why I Write Poems With A Pencil

Rating: ★4.3


I pour my sanity on paper
With letters
Curved with Lead
As it explodes,
Something shatters
And
Somewhere
Someone
Bleeds.
They tell me
Nowadays
One needs a license
To write poetry
As
One would need
To keep a gun.
