What Wasted Words they Proved Themselves to Be

What Wasted Words they Proved Themselves to Be

All those words you wrote

now thrown away ..

All those words you wrote

but dare not say ..

All those words you wrote

that let you down ..

When you pressed pause,

stop, or delete

instead of pressing play ..

All those words you wrote

borrowed, stole or

plagiarised to try and make

some of them stay ..

What wasted words they

proved to be

when played across the ears

of so many deaf disciples

I know that in the past you have written about plagiarism and I also know how this can make a poet feel. I had a whole poem stolen once. If work is deliberately taken then it should be called out. This happens so much in the music business where it isn’t always easy to identify. You Neville have your own unique style. One of several poets I am pleased to follow. Does that make me a disciple or a groupie ;) Wishing you a very happy and healthy new year my friend.
