The Self Portrait

The poet sat and thought

He thought very much a lot

about the words he could put to page

whether something whimsical or sage

But it was all for naught

For his brain did rot

As he sat upon his spot

In very much deep thought

You see he worried of this thing

About how his words would ring

This caused him so much strife

He completely wasted his life

This worry consumed his time

So much he never penned a line

And you can find his bones

Sitting quite alones

With quill in hand

Paper at his feet in sand

Only a title written on the sheet

    THE SELF POR-TREET
