A poem by Beverly Stock.
A paraphrase
Will always raise
A question of the
Writer’s intention.
Be they truthful
As well as useful?
Or affection
With no direction?
Is it a gesture
Of charity?
Paraphrasing for
Greater clarity?
Appease and keep
Meanings the same.
Even if, by chance,
Some verbs perturb,
Restore our
Syntax again,
We are just
Flawed poets.
Please and thank
You. Amen
