A satire with literary indication <br /> <br />Heaven never lacks <br />The glory of the word, <br />Heaven never lacks <br />A radiant thought, <br />But the “rhyme-maker” <br />Proudly steals others’ lines… <br />And fails to create <br />A bright plot. <br />The time-honored wisdom <br />Is marked with splendor… <br />The “rhyme-maker” tries <br />To alter the reason… <br />But he can’t perceive <br />The experience – the wisdom. <br />He fools just a fool <br />With such treason. <br />The “rhyme-maker” <br />Proudly steals other’s lines, <br />Gloats over the words <br />Of the blessed bards. <br />He – a true robber, <br />A literary thief, <br />Tries to instruct us. <br />He fights against the gifted <br />With the fierce venom and hate, <br />Under the mask of virtue, <br />Under the mask of merit. <br /> <br />3.O9.2OOO. <br /> <br />Translated from Georgian<br /><br />Janri Gogeshvili<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/with-a-false-pen/
