betteroffbadSmart people are different from you and me.
They are more like a forest than like a TV
Sometimes their mouths are too small for the speeches
That shoot from the roots of their tongues like young beeches
Sometimes I wish that I could be smart
With a sea for a brain and a brain for a heart
My words would come clambering thickly and readily
And cling to the page just a little less deadily.
