Get started young
with poetry
and roll your tongue
in gaiety.

Hear how the words
pick up the play
in twos and thirds
with what you say.

To play it safe
when reading poems
you can’t join PAFE*
or leave your homes.

Yes! Commit crime!
Let poems allow
all stealthy rhymes
to raise your brow.

Thanks to YouTube for the allowance for sharing videos such as this one! (If I’m in trouble, let me know.)
