    Default The Price of Poetry (CTG)

    The Price of Poetry

    Its worth?
    Butterfly scales?
    Beauty lacks any price.
    We write masterpieces, demand
    no wage.

    True, we make no demand as to wages,
    we poets and untutored sages,

    we live to out what is in us that rages,
    to unlock what is pent up in cages,

    is payment enough through the ages
    irrespective of how inked the page is.
    .................................................. .........

    No competition engendered,
    no matter how little is rendered,

    we each rhyme employ
    ourselves to enjoy

    Chris need not hoot for payment to boot
    you know poetry is charged by the foot.

    [I must get out more]
