I can't marry a poet
One who listens with heart
Silence his loudest echoes
Turning me to deaf and dumb
I can't marry a poet
He will make me his fictitious lines
Telling my love with his "mighty sword at hand
down his " whitetablet"
Making me all a joke
I can't marry a poet
I fear he'll leave me drown
In his convoluted diction
Words I can't reckon
I can't marry a poet
I fear my children would come ride
On this same boat
Full of illusionary words
Which none can contend
Except the experts
Tell me, how can I bear
Knowing my private moments
Are shared on open scripts
Knowing he's never mine alone
For his "Mistrel MistressMuse"
Never stops invading
There I say never can I marry a poet
For marriage they say " needs no third party"
