The Power Of The Pen

The Power of the Pen

The Pen an M-16 fully loaded
The Ink is a bullet full jacket molded
The Words written are often dangerous
The Knowledge spilled is very contagious

The Pen comes equipped with a silencer
The Ink is professional not an amateur
The Words are cutting with every spent round
The Knowledge complex yet always profound

The Pen moves quietly, but still it's heard
The Ink a trap, your mind becomes lured
The Words that escape from its tip
The Knowledge if spoken graces your lips

The Pen in hand, one with a sharp mind
Can be gracious and encouraging at times
The Ink is not spared as it flows on the page
It bleeds the mind and soul with age
The Knowledge is priceless once it is obtained
If you don't receive it, there's only you to blame.
