Sometimes they lose the plot

Poets, they think they know a lot

Later he would engage in wordplay

Today was a sad yet busy day

It afforded him little time to think

Now in the silence of nightfall

He took some time to reflect, recall

This in turn moved the mind on to a poetic link

This perfect moment of content

Freeing him of turmoil and torment

We know not what we owe this moment to he thought

Tonight he will make a poet of himself

His fate will be sealed if he escapes this duty

This cannot be allowed come to naught

Something he is not prepared to face

He had, come morning again to face the human race

Now that his mind was no longer full of empty

Concluded his poetic piece, retired, placed it on the library shelf.
