The Poet



It would be such an Honor
to stand in the shadow
of your Gloriousness
I can only hope that some of those
fabulous Creative Juices
will get in my eye as you
Spew forth
Conspicuous words such as
Angel,Heaven
Forever,Beautiful,Perfection
in order to complete the
ClichT that is you
On second thought,I fear your
Masterpiece
may send me into
Diabetic Shock
and you are
not worth the
Insulin
