The Quill


the quill tells all on any given day
remarkable magic, you might say
it squiggles and wiggles, showing the way
perfection in humility for which we pay
the story transcends time to be sure
it cannot ignore reality, be it demure
what it parlays we must all endure
if our hopes and dreams fall in manure
and yet, the fine line we come to walk
imagine how ideal a future we talk
as if in our day we line it with chalk
and never do we fake it with a balk
indeed life sends us stories in dreams
and the truth is not always as it seems
