POEMS ARE NOT BREAD <br /> <br />Poems are not bread- <br />They are not money <br />In anyway- <br /> <br />You can write and read <br />A million of them, <br />And it will not pay <br />One small bill. <br /> <br />You don’t have to blame <br />The poems, <br />Because <br />You don’t make money. <br /> <br />But you have to know- <br />They are not going to save you- <br />In that, <br />either.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poems-are-not-bread/
