Poet’s Blade
Held in the hand,
tis small and round.
the tip at the end
brings many a man down.
The mightiest of weapons,
the blade short and stout,
tipped to paper
blood pours out.
Though most a weapon
do not consider it to be,
the pen is the mightiest
of blades I have ever seen.
It cuts the wielder
just as deeply
as the victim,
leaving both to bleed
in swipes planned
carefully.
