A poet is...
A comedian without jokes
A politician who don't get votes
A musician who just made a new tune
A janitor with a dust pan and no broom
A truck driver with oars and a row boat
A fish out of water who jumped out of a moat
A veteran who sees civilians as sheep
A policeman one paycheck away from being a thief
A survivor of illness who won't take their health for granted
An urban farmer whose first seeds were just planted,
Two strangers who just discovered a new friendship or love
An addict who flushed away the last of his drug
The student who just learned something new
And the teacher who persisted, inspired, and knew what she could do
