Pray Tell Me
Pray Tell Me
...what kind of poet you are.
Are you a nature poet
at peace on this earth
be it forest, ocean, or desert?
Are you an urban poet
energized by strange smells
and packed transit trains?
Are you a psychological poet
stalking the subconscious,
searching for answers?
Are you a romantic poet
singing your dreamy songs
celebrating seduction?
Are you a poet warrior
fighting injustice and inequality,
championing all of love's causes?
Are you a mystical poet
folding time, speaking in riddles,
and transcending dimensions?
Maybe you're not on this list.
But please don't worry.
Simply write us a poem
revealing who you are today.
I am his highness’s dog at Kew;
Pray tell me, sir, whose dog are you?
~ Alexander Pope
