Going in search of purer language

Today he will make his way to pastures new

Borrow from words which he has already written.

Unquestionably? Don’t we all follow this path

Once by this writing bug we are bitten.

We owe it to words to give them their due

He’ll do this until he draws his last breath.

Words which are gentle, tame, and meek

He tries with difficulty to lay in neat arrangement.

Working at all times to avoid “crude”

Which can be to some writers determinant.

Then again shouldn’t we all be allowed speak

We writers, are we not a peculiar brood?
