The King's Medicine

They become you if they hard enough

Pompous f*****g b******s, they are
lording over poetry, bent backs, scrutinizing,
putting rhyme to meter, and "creative rules".
Where do you find the time
to combine pages of scribbled accounts,
then claim the masses blind?
Prescribing a dose of medicine,
they become you if they try hard enough.
Thinking back, it is the only remedy
or the disease is incurable.
The generic moans and rhymes
to them belonged.
Now the so named "imagery" and
"poetic devices" are yours.
It's approved and stamped with kingly seals.
