Those who tell us that poets are of the few
Are not telling us anything that is in any way that is new
Though many refer to themselves as a poet
And deaserve to be looked on as worthy of literary note
One must say fair dues to them for thinking of themselves in this way
But what we believe ourselves to be in reality is true to say
Not really what we may think we are
Since many take their delusion of self importance one can say that bit far
There are minor poets in every village and city and town
Who do know of some local fame are strangers to literary renown
The self promoted poets are many but the true poets are rare
This is something that most people of are aware
The words i am a poet in truth one can say
Are often used by people who of their literary importance get carried away
