The Power of Poetry

You talk of the downfall of power,
The salvation of poetry
I talk of the power within poetry...
The poetry of power

These thoughts and verses you yearn for,
Sweet, innocent and delicately coy,
Come from the power within,
My internal weaponry,
Perfectly juxtaposed against my peaceful demeanor,
My convoluted mind swells with onomatopoeic missiles, explosive wit and scholarly torture.
Equipped am I for intellectual lubrication,
Eagerly awaiting my next confrontation,
Salivating for a literary battle,
Ravenous for poetic justice once again...
