The Sad, Sad Life of a Poet -or- Why I Will Never Be Successful.

Poets should not be
cannot be
could not be
happy people.
As Leo said
Happiness is something,
one thing,
while sadness many,
many more.
A happy poet
sings one song
and it begins
with the color of roses.
While a poet who feels
more emotions than this
can sit
and write verses
for years.
