Poet Or Prophet

Transcription

Poet or Prophet

Poet,
prophet.
She said: "Why you make tales?"
"Why do you tell?"
Intuition!

Poet,
prophet,
She screams, sighs:
"Be not so right,
make one wonder why?"
Premonition!

Poet,
prophet,
She dreams the night.
From a nightmare, she wakes;
sweaty, wet, she swears
To have dreamed dreams!

Poet,
prophet, please:
Won't you be still?
Hush-up your prophecy.
Make a divine plea, please,
while your mortal heart still ticks.
