A Poem Is A Piece Of Wood Poem by Francie Lynch

A Poem Is A Piece Of Wood



A poem is
A piece of wood.
It can be ripped,
Chopped,
Shaped and sanded
For smoothness.
Sometimes you nail it;
And it can stick like glue.
You can drill a hole
Right through it,
It might bore one
Through you.
It can get under your skin.
But when it's cut
Against the grain,
It should be read again.
