this pen.
by Rachel Bennettwith this pen,
I shatter marble dreams
into confused pebbles
with this pen,
I halt rivers and
crush dams.
with this pen,
I swat down statues of
rotting statesmen.
with this pen,
I sing the end of this
monotonous empire.
this pen,
my Nero-fiddle. 11/21/2009 Author's Note: You can't see me, but I'm laughing evilly.
