Poems are  
like sunlight
 
and poets are the windows.

		I composed a second version on this where, on a more serious note, I elaborated on how a poet's duty in the body of civilization is to have their hearts pierced so that they may hold beauty, ie be an earlobe, but Veneer killed it. xD Oh well, that gem would have probably been overwrought in my hands -- someone up for the spit?

Ah come on... I never felt so guilty about something since I was at school. 
Ella started it so I thought it was fine to follow she has that kind of influence on things round here. Also once I've misread a word then it is forever imprinted on my brain so within seconds of seeing a post called Vermeer I knew what the future would be.     I'm sorry. 
So now you can post your second version and I can get rid of my guilt trip. Amen. Excellent

Well, it was posted it fun, we had fun.    It's split now. I expect a venerable venereal  poem next.

Poems are

Poems are 
like dogs
