Pen
the pen
is the only weapon
i have used
a cheap biro
is what i choose
it is, at best,
fountain pens at dawn
deadly markers
already drawn v
the pen
is the only weapon i have
even when the words
are just confused
or my language is mangled
and the verbs badly abused
with the nouns
just left to lose
the pen
is the only weapon
i will ever use
and if i faced a duel
it is the one thing i would choose
