Abort The Poem!
I will not hesitate
To eradicate my own words
Kill a poem in the bud
If it betrays my intention
Puts my inner voice to shame
I will abort the process
Of creation and publication
Return immediately to sender
The prenatal remains
Of a verse in the making
A devious coup d’état
To leave me standing
Defenseless in the face of truth
