Cuts Like a Sheet of Mead Notebook Paper

there's a trail of blood
leading from your dead body
back to my simile

summon the courts
because i am ready to stand trial

when the judge asks me
why i did what i did
i will look to a jury
vacant of poets

and i will tell them
but they won't get it

"who the fuck gives a shit about poetry
anyway?"

but i will try
to make them understand 
that
you
and anyone else calling themself a poet
who uses "cuts like a knife"
deserves to die
