Sonnet For Acquirable Resellable Treasure Poem by Danny Draper

Acquirable resellable treasure
Whatever expresses your deepest self,
Themes, emotions, tragedies to measure
Personal, political, change by stealth.
Stick it, lick it, dump your heart right in it
Fine or traditional, questioning strife,
Risk persecution for truth's benefit
Fame or obscurity, set or lost life.
For some it is ephemeral and bleak
Others manipulate trends contrivance,
Followers' a voice, no one hears them speak
News cycles grind on each days tragic chance.
Buy what you like it may appreciate,
Or be treasure just one appreciates.
