Mightier Than The Sword


A pen is a piece of art in itself

With the flick of a wrist

You can create a creature

She could be lovely

Or she could be a grotesque figure

But she'll be beautiful

Because you made her

With your pen which is mightier than all

 

It is not just the sword

That the pen is up against

The pen must combat the mouse

The pen will prevail, however

I will let mine die

My pen will be with me forever

She will write with me

And become my companion

 

My companion-

Who is stronger

And more brave

And more elegant

Than any serif figure

I can not live without my pen

I will never put it down

because I can never put it down

I have too much to say
