My Poetry: The Poetry of Friendship

The poetry of friendship

---

Latin notes
play above
the nervous
poets’ heads
who wait at
tables to
recite their
crafted words
but before
their notebooks
can open
the barkeep
hangs a sign
from the door:
night cancelled.
So bookish
chat of peers
starts to flow
with rhythmic
pint pot clinks
and quickly
poetry
of friendship
drowns the music.
Suddenly
crafted words
are useless
as no more
needs to be
understood.
