What does a poet desire
As he creates a poem?
Surely on his words you reflect
And analyze his thoughts.
Will they be what the author envisioned
As he created the poem?
Or will his words instill
Different thoughts entirely?
Let us not think in terms
Of what the author set out to do.
But in how his words inspired us
To write a comment on his poem.
Keeping us out of a rut,
Could be as well considered just a remark,
Put forth by an errant matriarch...-e-
A comment there.
The words we write,
are meant to share.
