To the observer it
Becomes clear that
Broken people make
The finest artists
And contrarily
Broken artists
Of all descriptions
Make the finest
Poets.
Here's to us all ...
The 'Broken'.

A great tribute indeed - to our merry band of scribes.
Many thanks, Michael. Your contribution to the merry band is well appreciated.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Louis, you just put some duct tape on me!
Hope it doesn't take off much hair with it when removed! Your comment is greatly appreciated, Fred.
Im not so much broken as cracked!
Cracked works just as well for a poet, I'm sure. Thanks for reading and commenting, da.
Cheers, Louis. (Salud!)
Thank you, Frank! Cheers back at you.
Broken but writing the pain away - a good description and tribute to the finest of poets dear Louis
Thank you, Fay. You, of course, may be the exception to the rule that all great poets must be broken. "The exception that proves the rule", as they say.
A very fine tribute to all Poets Louis.
Appreciation from such a fine poet as yourself is humbly accepted, Goldie.
AMEN to that. ; )
Glad it resonated, AP! Thanks.
Bravo! A fine write. A great tribute to us all!
And a well deserved one, if I do say so myself. Thanks for the positive review, Christina. And thanks for making it a fav!
Thank you. I find the answer for my puzzle "why I am not a poet?" Because I am still in the process of breaking, not broken yet.
Give it a little time ... with any luck, something will bring you to your knees and bless you by breaking you properly! Thanks for your comment, m&m.
