it's only words

they steal my words
put them in their pockets
and up their sleeves
my heart greaves
only slightly

then they present them
as if they invent them
when they really belong
to the universal vocabulary 
of poem
quite rightly

 clasp them in chains..?
in brackets and flames !
keel haul the remains !
twice nightly
carefull what you print
thou the pen is mightier
than the sword..
some can't afford the ink
it's indellible
justifiable
exempliary
undeniable..
and it stinks...
