When to Cease and Desist?



Dear Ed:

 Thanks for that personal plus  poetic comment, below.

When to Cease and Desist?


When should a poet, or would-be poet, cease and desist?

To answer that question, I too can't resist.

As, at  the piano,. when at verse,   I write and play at

with no thought of ever becoming a poet  laureate

but almost entirely  for my own bemusement--

 yet I'm pleased should  it also   give others amusement. 



It gives me quite a bit cheer, in fact

if and when I'm overheard with tact,

since,   no matter how I might   be aspirin'

I'll never  be a great musician or a Lord Byron, 

or even less, a wayward genius like his  daughter Ada,

so ,to be safe, I also  always try   to include  some  data.

This was sent to me
Do you know this (Billy Collins), the  big deal poet from  Stoneybrook?
I think you are much funnier

Addendum here:
This was sent to me and should have gone to Harold even more


I have no desire for notoriety
Just enjoy my office quietly.
Writing to amuse myself and a few
Willing to put up with what I do.

Here and there some find better ways
To spend their remaining days.
And say cease and desist.
Your stuff makes it hard to exist.

If any of you find this trash
Too trashy for your stash
Just give the word to end
No more will I send.
