Poet with A Choice

Should I leave my pencil alone

Because that's what I have been told

Leave my muse for emotion?

That's my audience's notion.

What's a singer without an audience?

An off-tune babbling fool that doesn't like silence.

What's a writer without a reader?

He's as useless as a great army without a leader.

But anyway, I scribble again on and on,

Till my lead runs out.
