The Metaphorical Man

Here I am

With words meaning me

The best that I can

My mentor’s Will Jumper

A high-jumping man

A poet that’s poet-y-er

Than poets can stand

I smash words together

And do it real soon

And when I get going

A cow jumps the moon

I string stanzas together

Like glimmering pearls

And crimes against poesy

My behavior unfurls

So now we take stock

Of the things you can stand

In the words of a poet
