POET

Poet 

 

He who calls himself a poet

Doesn't write

about solitude,

isolation or depression.

 

He never wrote 

About poison

About suicides

About murders

 

He was always 

Busy–

Writing about

Eyes, and hairs 

And beauties

And love stories.

 

He who is a poet 

Never knew about the whores,

Never wrote about bruised faces,

About bitten breasts

Or asses

 

Never wrote about 

Scars, about 

Damn fuck

Wild cocks

Weeping women

 

I am not a poet 

I write, what I know

"There is a poor girl 

Hungry 

On streets

Virgin

And teen"

 

This is all.

This is my poem.
