Ideologically deficient, <br />a person no one needs, <br />my words are insufficient <br />to justify my deeds, <br />and don’t deserve an effort <br />to give me your attention. <br />I’m like a verb that’s severed <br />from subject; no declension <br />helps me with conjugation, <br />and rules that are irregular <br />lead me towards evasion, <br />religiously when secular. <br />Incompetent when pleading <br />my cause in all my verses, <br />I don’t deserve a reading <br />that no one reimburses; <br />don’t even pay attention–– <br />the price would be too steep. <br />The mother of invention <br />sees me, and falls asleep. <br /> <br />5/3/06<br /><br />gershon hepner<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poet-s-memorial/
