The Silenced Poet



THE silenced Poet ~resolution

Sedating one another with dulcet diatone
Exchange creativity for form
Will this satisfy?  ?
Nodding in hushed appraisal
Feigned welcome for the
Bush poet

Stifled thought masquerading
in a measured guise
The seams do split there and
Here comes another everything in order
Ideas fettered to remain within these walls
Who will read?
Who shall Hear?
Within these walls you
AUDIENCE  your personal
mute audience
I walk on by
Satisfied  even boasting to
myself this Victory of Will
Of Timbre No pandamoaning
today   Focus is bright
Illuminated by knowledge,
Experience, confidence

A SILENCING of Poets
.          by
the The Poem Doctor

I heal rhyme from Honest folk  
soothe and balance  Restore
A Poem no worse than mine
I render into versions which satisfy My personal sense of Worth

Inspired by a silencing of poets  a loose society of Possibilties who stifle each other,'s  SenSibility
My poems are unlike those of other,'s I said to him I said He asked me who I had read
 Tennyson    when rendered into Chinese takes on different hues, Takes on different Hues
