The Imagist And The Thespian Poem by Frank James Ryan Jr...fjr

You are a Thespian of stage and fest
I am an Imagist of literary dream
You can sing, dance on Broadway stage
Pour amongst the criics page
But, you'll never paint what you want to say,
Which limits your scope of script 'n play
For a Thespian is all you'll ever be
And with age 'Shalt turn thy back on thee''

I am an Imagist of all lifes themes
I can place myself anywhere I please
I'll take the mundane blank and cold
Turn it into a fiery lightening bolt
Sound and touch are irrelevant to me
When my third-eye is fixed on poetry
I guess an Imagist is all I'll ever be
Truth be told, I'm a soul of imagery
