    Lizzie

    Oh, my dear, I can tell you things
    Oh, dear, Can I lie in your bosom
    And tell you things not for maiden’s ears
    But tell the tale of whispered fears, my dear?

    Oh sir, don’t languish here selling your wares
    Oh, my dear sir don’t sell me hear telling me words
    For the stories I have heard can send you running astray
    And my bosom sir is for the boys who haven’t a way

    I can see through the likes of you and your charade
    Here in this beat down lonely old pub
    Where two pints down needs two pints pay
    So if you plan to stay and keep your pints, then pay

    Oh dear, dear, haven’t you heard the forest call your name
    The wind carries “Lizzie” to this pub and other manor
    It rides on the wind, “Lizzzz…eeee…” can you hear the name?
    But sir, how did you know it carried to me my name?

    I am the wind and the trees and I say, “Lizzzz…eeee…”
    And with that he was gone as the door slammed shut
    And Lizzie new she had been visited by no less than Grim
    The reaper came and called her name and Lizzie followed him

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
