I
met a man the other day he called me a muse
I told him firmly I didn't like his verbal abuse
That most of my new poems were from my own themes
And many of my others were from my own dreams
All of my love stories brought me both joy and stress
And some of my poems have done well in contests
I never insult anyone I may be confused
But I rarely use words that make people feel abused
But there are always begrudges to knock good men down
And now I have found one who lives here in my home town
He didn't wait for more comments as down the road he fled
I heard him loudly muttering and shaking his head
I told him firmly I didn't like his verbal abuse
That most of my new poems were from my own themes
And many of my others were from my own dreams
All of my love stories brought me both joy and stress
And some of my poems have done well in contests
I never insult anyone I may be confused
But I rarely use words that make people feel abused
But there are always begrudges to knock good men down
And now I have found one who lives here in my home town
He didn't wait for more comments as down the road he fled
I heard him loudly muttering and shaking his head
