Opposite option got blocked by the sophistry
Offered by obstinate scoffers who honestly
Preach that beseeching a zenith brings mockery.
Tattooed by a muse, I refuse the mendacity,
'Choosing improvement can cancel sagacity.'
Usual usage of craft is a tragedy,
Beautiful student will ruin nugacity.
Design on my skin over spine is symbology,
Printing insisting to flog thought-homology.
None of you want to abolish monotony,
Therefore I scorn you without an apology."

Whoa, this sure isn't "usual usage of craft" - it leaps into music! Apt, I think, the title, Minerva overseeing poets and warriors, the goddess that's tattooed on the medal of honor.

as always, very entertaining use of rhyme and rhythm.and you write with such regulated frequency...always a poem every 6/7 days.amazing. keep it up.
ReplyDeleteTight, as always, sir! Love the allusions in this one. You packed it up good.
ReplyDeleteThis is very clever and tongue-twisting, and the rhyming and meter are perfection. I am way impressed. My tired old brain cannot produce such delights any more, but I sure had fun reading it!!
ReplyDeleteThis feels like a rap. The alliteration is so fun, when read aloud. No waste, either. My kind of writing.

I could hear the words with a rhythm and a beat. Musical notes in poetry....
